“HANO’s mission is to unite and strengthen the nonprofit sector as a collective force to improve the quality of life in Hawaii, and our ability to offer Govenda to our members fits that mission perfectly,” said Lisa Maruyana, President and CEO of HANO. “Board governance is one of the most critical issues our organizations deal with and one where, until now, there have been no effective and affordable solutions for planning, creating and managing board of director’s meetings. With Govenda, our organizations will be able to better serve their boards, empower their boards with real-time information, as well as save staff time and resources.”
As part of the agreement, HANO members will have access to all Govenda features including meeting scheduling, boardbook and agenda preparation, document annotations, centralized document repository, board roster management, news and announcements, and polls. Board members will be able to access their information through an iPad app or a secure Web portal.
“We are delighted that Govenda will now be part of the HANO universe,” said Marion Lewis, CEO of Govenda. “We know how important boards are to non-profits, both for governance and fundraising. With Govenda, organizations can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of board communication and planning, improving governance and helping them fufill their missions. Equally important, they don’t need to make a choice between quality and cost.”
