"Many smaller nonprofits need to understand the extra cost of NOT sharing services. Nonprofit staff with their “can-do” attitude spend hours on projects that are best left to professionals. Rather than share an IT specialist with another organization, the executive director will waste a day of her time fixing a computer problem. By doing this, the ED is not making a call to a potential donor or analyzing data to improve a program. Shared services are a way of getting work done by the right people, immediately, and properly."
