The fragility of the support system for neighborhood, community, and smaller nonprofit organizations was evident soon after 9/11 in the NY and Tri-State area, and exacerbated an existing national trend to underfund the technology these organizations needed to do important programmatic work. While priority programs were often eligible for funding by private and corporate foundations, the technologies that drove and delivered those programs were rarely funded. This has produced a technology gap that has differentiated for-profit from non-profit ventures. WebServes has long-sought to alleviate some of that shortfall by offering affordable access to technology for such under-funded organizations.
