Non-Profit Technology & Consulting Services

At Engine Room, we support mission-driven organizations through thoughtful digital strategy, custom development, and long-term technical support. Our non-profit technology and consulting work helps organizations grow their reach, improve efficiency, and create more meaningful engagement, without adding complexity or overhead.

If you’re launching a new initiative, modernizing your infrastructure, or rethinking your digital footprint, we bring the technical expertise and sector insight to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

We specialize in building and maintaining complex digital ecosystems for non-profits. As a seasoned web developer for non-profits, we go beyond websites to help organizations strengthen infrastructure, integrate essential systems, and translate mission into action through purposeful digital tools.

Engine Room takes a consultative, collaborative approach to every engagement. We listen first, then design solutions around your internal workflows, external audiences, and available resources. Our goal is to build tools that serve your needs today and support long-term growth without unnecessary technical debt.

Our non-profit technology and consulting services include:

• CMS and CRM Implementation for Marketing and Fundraising: We implement and configure content management systems (CMS) that make it easy for your team to publish, update, and manage content across channels. Combined with the right CRM, this gives you a strong foundation for fundraising, event management, donor engagement, and targeted communications. We work with your existing platforms or help you identify tools that better fit your goals.
• Intranet and Portal Development for Back Office Support: Many non-profits rely on internal platforms to manage day-to-day operations. We design and build intranets and staff portals that support HR, document sharing, onboarding, internal announcements, and more. These tools reduce email overload, improve access to information, and foster better collaboration, especially for hybrid or distributed teams.
• Technology Consulting and Virtual CIO/CISO Services: Small and mid-sized non-profits often face major IT decisions without dedicated internal leadership. Our virtual CIO and CISO services offer executive-level insight without the cost of a full-time hire. We help assess risks, set priorities, evaluate vendors, and plan for the future, whether you’re modernizing infrastructure, improving security, or scaling operations.
• CMS Success™ service: Once your CMS is live, we stay involved. CMS Success™ is our structured support program that includes ongoing updates, performance monitoring, strategic advice, user support, and training. It’s designed to keep your site functional, user-friendly, and aligned with your evolving goals. You won’t have to scramble for one-off fixes or workarounds—just consistent, expert support.

We’ve been a trusted web developer for non-profits across a wide range of sectors, including public health, education, social services, and advocacy. Some of the organizations we’ve supported include:

• Living Beyond Breast Cancer: Providing trusted information and connection for individuals affected by breast cancer.
• Philly House: Offering shelter, meals, and recovery services to people experiencing homelessness.
• Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM): Supporting a global network of applied mathematicians through events, publishing, and member programs.
• AccessLex Institute: Working to improve access and outcomes in legal education through research, tools, and student support.
• Tech Impact: Helping non-profits use technology more effectively while building IT career pathways for young adults.

Our approach to non-profit technology and consulting is built on collaboration, transparency, and sustainable outcomes. We believe digital infrastructure should serve your mission, not get in its way. Whether you’re building from the ground up or enhancing your existing tools, we help align your systems with your strategy and make every investment count.
