SP2 One Book – In Person

SP2 is excited to announce the selection of Technology for Good: How Nonprofit Leaders Are Using Software and Data to Solve Our Most Pressing Social Problems by Jim Fruchterman. In Technology for Good, Fruchterman delivers a comprehensive how-to for leaders who want to create, expand, support, and improve the use of technology as a key element for delivering on their social good mission. The author makes a strong case that tech is required for social change at scale. He offers guidance on how to structure, fund, staff, manage, scale, and sustain nonprofits that leverage technology for social good. The book includes actionable, proven practices, compelling case studies of nonprofits that have “cracked the code” on tech for good, and Fruchterman’s own stories of what he has learned as a tech-for-good entrepreneur. With 80 percent of the examples in the book from organizations and individuals outside the United States, Technology for Good is a call to action with a genuinely global focus, blazing a path toward a future in which human beings come rightly and justly before profits.

The in person session is for Doctoral students, Alums, Faculty, Staff. We are hopeful that these discussions will help build connections within SP2 and deepen our understanding of important social issues.
