Working Cheaply

Quick and easy ways to lessen costs associated with working at your organization. These are some immediate ways to increase a non-profits capacity through saving money.

Carpool
Perhaps some of your co-workers live near you?

Telecommute
This is particularly great if most of your work is computer oriented. No bus/transport costs, all your food is at home, time usually spent in commuting is can be spent working. Be wary of getting lonely and unstimulated however - chatting can help with that if you're connected with your fellow employees.

Online File Sharing
I use Google docs to cut back on a lot of sending paper work back and forth between email. For a small time investment of acclimating staff to the (easy to use and familiar) interface, less time is spent on tracking changes, saving stuff, resending, and commenting.
