IT Support for Churches and Nonprofits

A lot of the time, one person is responsible for the phones, email, volunteers, vendors, and building. We take the technology side of that job off their plate.

Copperband supports churches and nonprofits across Clarksville, Hopkinsville, Nashville, and Middle Tennessee, from congregations and retreat facilities to advocacy, youth, arts, family-service, and crisis-response organizations. These are often small teams responsible for a lot of technology, and we understand that they do not operate like a normal office.

How We Work with Churches and Nonprofits

  • The phones and the building. For a lot of churches this is most of the work. Handsets that stop ringing, a cordless that drops offline, voicemail nobody can get into, and no dial tone on a Sunday morning. We also run the cable, add the drops, and put in access points so the wireless actually reaches past the office into the sanctuary, the classrooms, and the fellowship hall. Older buildings make this harder, and we do it anyway.
  • Email and account security. Organizations like these get targeted because of what they hold and the money that moves through them. We watch for the signs that matter, a mailbox rule quietly created to hide replies, a sign-in that does not fit, an account suddenly restricted from sending. We set up email authentication so mail pretending to come from your organization does not land. When something does happen, we investigate it, secure the account, and deal with what changed.
  • Staff, volunteers, and access. Churches and nonprofits often have a mix of full-time staff, part-time staff, volunteers, and people covering more than one role. We set up the people who need access, remove it when they leave, and make sure the email and files attached to a role do not disappear with the person who had it last.
  • The records you are responsible for. Some of these organizations hold case files, counseling notes, or information about children and families. That information needs to stay available, backed up, and limited to the people who actually need access to it.
  • Working with what you have. Mixed equipment, donated laptops, tablets bought a few at a time, and a budget that is decided once a year. We keep it working, tell you plainly when something is past saving, and flag replacements early enough to be planned instead of discovered.

“I have referred them to many of my nonprofit agencies… they have saved so much money as well as improving their IT infrastructure. I would highly recommend Chris and his team to anyone.”
