Linked to some of the discussions about how to collaborate under Tip G, an often under-utilised strategy for civic technology organisations is thinking about exchange and other forms of non monetary donation (no doubt because your most significant costs tend to be human resources). Thinking about how the financial burden on your core costs can be alleviated through technology donations, or volunteers can be a different way of approaching corporate and individual donor clients. Exchanging skills between yourself and another civic technology organisation can be similarly useful, even extending to the sharing of personnel skills.
