What do your constituents think about your programs and services? What kinds of activities are your donors likely to fund? Should your organization initiate a new program?
Rather than resort to using telepathic powers or mind reading, an online survey is a powerful research tool that can deliver the feedback you need. Paper-based surveys are often too costly and time-consuming to administer, but online surveys make it easy for any organization to get feedback on the cheap.
Preventing Violence in the Home has recently started a new pilot
project called "Safe At Home" which is aimed at keeping high risk
families safe, by making their homes more secure, with locks being
changed or fitted, sensor lighting installed, glass doors changed to
solid wood, broken windows fixed, fire extinguishers and smoke
detectors provided etc. Each victim will also be given a personal
silent alarm, monitored 24 hours a day.
This project will be running on the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform.
“We anticipate having amazing information which will help New Zealand
learn better ways to protect vulnerable families, as a result of this
project and the only way we could manage this, is through our wonderful
new database. Thank you for making this possible for us, we could never
have afforded to buy your products. We are so grateful.” Jane Drumm.
