Here at Google for Nonprofits we’re always looking for ways to help your organization thrive. Whether it’s brainstorming ideas with Docs, minimizing costs through cloud based storage or managing international teams with Hangouts, we want to help make our tools work for you.

One nonprofit, Samasource, has done just that. Samasource is a social business dedicated to reducing poverty by connecting women, youth and refugees to meaningful work over the Internet. They employ thousands of workers internationally and, since 2008, they’ve delivered over $2 million in wages.

Samasource uses the suite of Google for Nonprofits products, specifically Google Docs, Spreadsheets, Forms and Calendars, to manage workers in multiple countries. By using Google Apps, they are able to efficiently run their operations at a low cost. See more of their story below.
