Practical, affordable database and software help for nonprofits, so more of your time and budget goes to your mission instead of your systems.
For a nonprofit, every dollar spent on infrastructure is a dollar not available for services. But a database that breaks after an upgrade, or a homegrown system nobody can fix, can stop the mission just as surely as a budget cut.
J Street Technology has built custom software since 1994 for more than 600 clients, for-profit and nonprofit alike. Several of our long-term clients are nonprofits, including Drug Free Business and Providence Health & Services, and we help smaller community organizations too.
We don't just focus on business — we're proud of our portfolio of work with non-profit organizations. Data drives every organization, no matter the motive, and our motive is to make that data more organized and resourceful so our clients can streamline their activities and make informed decisions faster.
From coalitions to community groups, we build practical, affordable systems that let non-profits put more of their energy toward their mission.
Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence
The Coalition built a homegrown central database that went live in 2006. After a significant hardware and software upgrade, it began having serious issues. We listened to their needs and concerns, fixed the database, and went on to enhance it and help them think about future needs.
Facing Homelessness
Facing Homelessness, a Seattle nonprofit supporting homeless people, needed to be certified with Microsoft to qualify for a discounted Office 365 account. Our team responded the same day and guided them through the certification quickly and painlessly.
Supporting nonprofits isn't only client work for us. Each month J Street chooses a nonprofit to donate to, we host and maintain a few nonprofit websites at no charge, and we match donations our team members make to their favorite charities. Our president, Armen Stein, has helped The Rose International Fund for Children with technology and financial systems such as QuickBooks and Little Green Light, and joined their board. Read more about how we give back.
It depends on scope. As a rough guide, small new applications typically fall between $20,000 and $50,000, medium applications between $50,000 and $100,000, and larger systems above that. We'll give you a realistic estimate after a free consultation.
