Nonprofits rely on raw data to learn about supporters, track the success of marketing and fundraising campaigns, and measure program progress. Using this data, your organization can determine which metrics are best for measuring your social impact and illustrating all of your work’s tangible achievements.

While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

30% of volunteers state that one of the main reasons they volunteer is because they have the time available to do so.

VTO helps nonprofits earn more volunteers, meaning more hands available to run your programs, raise funds, and spread awareness of your cause.
