NGOTech Volunteer Network
Technology Talent Community Impact
network purpose
A practical bridge between technology volunteers and community work
The NGOTech volunteer network helps NGOs and nonprofits find people ready to share technology skills in service of community work. Volunteers can build experience, strengthen their resumes, and grow meaningful nonprofit relationships, while organizations can review public profiles, skills, availability, social proof, and verification status before starting a conversation.

organization account
Create an organization account
Organization accounts are separate from volunteer profiles. Use this form to request organization access for saving searches, favoriting profiles, bookmarks, and feedback. Choose a password now, then validate the email address before signing in from the main Sign In dialog.
organization verification
Trust levels for NGO and nonprofit access
Organization verification is separate from volunteer verification. US NGOs and nonprofits move toward Gold status when EIN, IRS status, submitted organization details, and contact information align.
Grey status
The organization account is created or listed but has not completed verification.
Orange status
Email is verified, but the account does not use a qualified organization-domain address.
Green status
Email verification is complete with a qualified domain-based organization address.
Gold status
EIN details, IRS nonprofit status, and submitted contact information align after review.
International Gold status verification is still in development. Organizations outside the United States without a US partner organization and EIN can complete email verification, but should contact NGOTech for case-by-case review before Gold status can be considered.
volunteer verification
Volunteer Verification
Volunteer verification has multiple steps. Profiles that have not completed email verification can display a grey pending badge and remain listed, but they cannot be contacted until verification is complete. Email-verified live user accounts display a Green Verification Badge. Ratings and feedback remain part of the regular trust review process. The optional paid Gold Verification service is a separate background-check workflow for volunteers or, for 16 or 17 year old volunteers, the parent or guardian aiding registration.
Note: Earning a Gold Verification Badge is a paid service and is not required to get started. It is an added benefit that some organizations may require before a volunteer works with sensitive data or materials. Each organization may choose to do its own vetting outside NGOTech's Volunteer portal, and we respect that. We are here to help when an organization requires a background check for people working on its projects.
Grey pending badge
Profiles may be listed while email verification is pending, but contact is locked.
Green badge
Confirm the account email so the public profile represents a live user account.
Skill evidence
Review reasonable proof such as work samples, certifications, references, or portfolio links.
Rating review
If a volunteer falls below 4.5, NGOTech may contact the volunteer and organizations who shared feedback, then decide whether the profile should be reinstated.
Background check
The volunteer, or the parent or guardian aiding a 16 or 17 year old volunteer's registration, pays Checkr for the required background check. Costs may vary by applicant location and mandatory country fees.
Gold badge decision
NGOTech grants, denies, pauses, or removes the Gold badge based on the verification policy.
organization verification
Organization Verification
Organization accounts have their own trust path so volunteers and NGOTech can understand who is using the service. Email validation starts the workflow, while Gold organization status is reserved for US NGOs and nonprofits whose EIN, IRS status, submitted details, and contact information align after review.
Grey status
The organization account is created or listed but has not completed verification.
Orange status
Email is verified, but the account does not use a qualified organization-domain address.
Green status
Email verification is complete with a qualified domain-based organization address.
Gold status
EIN details, IRS nonprofit status, and submitted contact information align after review.
International Gold status verification is still in development. Organizations outside the United States without a US partner organization and EIN can complete email verification, but should contact NGOTech for case-by-case review before Gold status can be considered.
