Abstract

What factors impact the types of Information Technology (IT) components that nonprofit organizations adopt? Do nonprofits with different missions adopt a certain technology, perhaps because they face particular pressures or have special operational needs? Or, is it more a matter of size, source of revenue, geographic location, tax status, or activities that nonprofits engage in that drive the types of IT they have? We draw on a survey of Indiana nonprofits to explore these basic questions about which nonprofits have which type of IT.
