“Propel showed me that you can establish a digital vision for your organization with just a few simple steps”.
"Through Propel, our team started using Salesforce CRM. Today we personalize communication with donors and access more sponsors, reducing the time of our campaigns from 3 days to 3 hours".
"The experience was extremely enriching. We left with clear strategies and detailed roadmaps to drive our digital transformation".
"In Propel, VIVA discovered the power of scaling automated communications. With Propel and Zigla's support, we reached more than 5,000 teachers with a single click, doubling confirmation and attendance".
"During the fellowship, we formed a partnership with Fundación El Origen in Colombia. Their platform allowed 100 Peruvian teachers to reach students in 8 rural regions. We grew fast by working collaboratively".
"At Propel you will find community, support, resources, and opportunities to develop yourself, your team, and your organization".
