Sparked: Microvolunteering Network Benefits Nonprofits
Submitted by Abigail on August 16, 2011
Sparked.com is an online portal of volunteers that have signed up to offer small amounts of time to complete web-based projects requested by nonprofits. Known as micro-volunteers, these individuals offer one or two hours a week to complete "Challenges" in the areas of technology, design, research, etc. Free for nonprofits (including arts nonprofits), it's an easy way to tap into a skilled volunteer network without committing a lot of time to volunteer management.
