Introduction
Nonprofit organizations are an important part of every society. These
organizations differ from traditional business and governmental
organizations in their structure and operations. As state organizations are
cutting benefits of citizens the role of these third sector organizations
have become more important as they do advocacy on behalf of poor citizens.
Keeping in view their societal importance and scientific challenges in
system design, we focus on technology involvement in this challenging
domain.

Objective

organizations but this sector traditionally lack funding and technical
resources to setup and maintain technology infrastructures in their

behind failure and success of technology usage in nonprofit organizations.
