Macintosh or OSX based desktop software that can help non-profits realize their mission and goals.
We're looking for tools that real organizations are using now, and for tools that non-profits could be using that they might not realize are ready for prime time.
This toolbox is part of the NonProfit Open Source Initiative's Free and Open Source Software Primer Project. Our goal is to maintain a living list of free and open source software tools and applicacations that can help non-profits and other civil society groups realize their goals and mission.
We invite you to contribute to this toolbox, and to check out our other toolboxes and help us keep them relevant as well.
