npService Network
The npService Network is a growing circle of private technology developers, each of whom has been reviewed and approved by npServ based on several criteria:
(1) Quality, (2) Affordability, (3) Nonprofit experience, and (4) Customer service. npServ often relies on Network partners to meet the needs of nonprofits beyond what npServ offers directly.

Website Development
These days it goes without saying that every nonprofit needs a good website. Below are a few developers that we believe deliver high quality results at a very reasonable price.
Intuitive Interface
http://www.intuitive-interface.com/
Nonprofit rate: $30/hour
Intuitive Interface has been involved in nonprofit web development for years. They are particularly notable for their excellent graphics work. If you are looking to create an affordable, good-looking website without a lot of bells and whistles, they are an excellent choice.
VC Web Design
http://www.vcwebdesign.com/
Nonprofit rate: $40/hour
VC Web Design is another excellent choice for basic web development. What distinguishes them from many other developers is their affordable implementation of "content management systems", which allows nonprofits to easily edit their own content after a site is created.
Google Tools
Did you know that Google offers a wide range of (mostly free!) web tools for nonprofits? When used together, these tools can often greatly enhance a nonprofit's activities. Examples include productivity (word-processing, email, calendering, etc.), publicity (advertisements, website tools, blogs, group discussion, etc.), and even revenue generation (online donations, e-commerce, etc.). While Google provides excellent online support for these tools, sometimes some hands-on expert support can help you combine these tools to create highly useful "systems" for your organization.
Growing Hope
http://www.growinghope.net
Rate: $30-$50/hour
Growing Hope has developed an outstanding expertise in making the most of free web tools such as Google Apps. They are able to translate this "front line" experience into outstanding guidance for nonprofits who are looking to leverage what Google has to offer.
