Unblocking NGO’s with Blocksurvey

Blocksurvey for NGO’s

For an NGO, its testing waters every day. How to execute a high impact project? How to research a problem? How to reach new donors and fundraise? How to build trust among all the participants? How to increase engagement among all participants? How to turn the vision into reality? Well, these are the very common questions in mind when it comes to non-profit organizations.

Today, NGO’s can use survey platforms inside and outside the organization for the market, field research, assessment, feedback, engagement, voting or polling, peer review, event planning, registration, fundraise, any type of form building, and for informant or whistleblowing.

Using Blocksurvey, a new age survey tool which runs on Block-chain helps in all these areas to build a healthy organization internally and externally. Timely actions and resolutions from the insights gained from data flow across the organization would build a strong relationship with the employees, donors, volunteers, and various participants. This helps to fuel growth with an absolute focus on the vision at ease.

Let us look in detail how Blocksurvey, an effective platform to conduct surveys, polls and forms can help the organization to address the above-mentioned concerns.

First, let’s start with reviewing the benefits of surveys, polls, and forms for NGO.

Benefits of a survey, poll, and forms for NGO

• Market and Social Research: External to the organization, survey tools can be used to conduct market, field, and social research for validation and audit of a problem. This helps NGOs to gain insights, study awareness, problems, and issues. By this NGO’s can go after the hardest problem with conviction. Today, this is primarily done in an offline way rather than digitally. With the penetration of mobile data, surveys can go digital to the target audience at ease and the research process gets easier and quicker.
• Event Planning and Registration: Conducting an event to raise funds or outreaching for volunteering activities are common to any non-profit organization. For an effective and successful event, pre and post-event analysis always help. Survey tool helps in qualifying people to get into event through registration forms. And, followed by post-event feedback in the form of surveys or polls, closes the loop by focusing on the participants. Results and insights gathered post-event help the organization to plan events much better each time by constantly growing through greater participation and contribution.
• 360 Feedback, Engagement and Satisfaction: Periodical collection of feedback from all participant internal and external helps in shaping up of NGO’s, and this, in turn, assists in heading in the right direction. This process opens a trustful channel for communication. This also builds a strong relationship among participants showing that you value their opinion and they are integral to the success of the NGO. Listening to their voice helps to look into problems without bias. Audience or participants for this includes all employees within the organization, donors, volunteers, and public. This is primarily done through feedback, satisfaction and engagement surveys. Donors and volunteers are undoubtedly an important reason for NGO success. It is important to have an open channel to listen to their opinions or concerns. Few examples to achieve this are through a) conducting donor and volunteer satisfaction surveys b) hiring survey after volunteer’s placements c) conducting promoter surveys d) channel to report unpleasant events or whistleblowing. The various uses of surveys or questionnaires will help to make the whole process a lot smoother. Also publishing the results for transparency builds an open organization. By this, the external participants would eventually become promoters of the NGO’s thus fuelling growth and retention of human resources and funds.
