About

NPower NY is part of a network of locally based nonprofit organizations that provide comprehensive, high-quality and affordable technology assistance to other nonprofit groups nationally. Founded in 1999, the NPower Network currently serves more than 4,000 organizations each year.

At NPower NY, we connect nonprofits to technology so that they can discover powerful new ways of serving their clients and communities. We've proven time and again that almost any nonprofit can leverage the power of IT to achieve transformative rewards.

At the same time, we understand that technology alone doesn't change the world — people do. That's why we base all our services in a friendly, flexible approach that delivers powerful IT solutions you can call your own.

History of the NPower Network

The first NPower opened its doors in Seattle in 1999, providing hands-on technology assistance — from classroom training to strategic technology planning to web site and database development — to nonprofit organizations in the Puget Sound. In response to the need for similar services in other communities, NPower Seattle partnered with Microsoft Corporation in 2000 to develop other NPower programs around the country — and the NPower Network was born.

History of NPower NY

NPower NY began offering services in the spring of 2001. We are the second oldest and the largest affiliate in the NPower Network, a national network of local nonprofits that help other nonprofits use technology to better serve their communities. In addition to Microsoft Corporation's visionary and founding support of the NPower Network, NPower NY's lead start-up contributors also include: Accenture, Altman Foundation, J.P. Morgan Chase Foundation, and the Robin Hood Foundation.
