The Tools4All Coop is a project of SMT to build negotiating power for small to medium-sized organizing groups with tool providers. The goals are to (1) reduce the price and (2) encourage the development of helpful features.

By joining the coop, groups immediately become eligible for discounted rates that SMT has negotiated. In addition coop members can request that SMT work to negotiate discounts on other tools and can make feature requests on discounted tools.

Testimonials

Learned invaluable skills, gained practical knowledge, and connected with inspiring professionals.
Our staff took a lot of SMT courses – including the intensive Digital Campaigning Certificate Program. It helped us take our digital campaigning and collectivizing actions to the next level! We used various tools to increase our follower base and successfully target authorities to take action at the village and municipal levels in India.

The course provided invaluable tools and strategies, real-world case studies from different cultural contexts, and a supportive learning environment that encouraged interaction and peer learning.
I received input on how to align field and digital work which is directly connected to the advocacy research that we are doing.
The SMT trainings I’ve taken have helped us mobilize and deepen engagement in our communities. Through Twitterstorms, phone banking, and other tactics that I learned through SMT’s trainings, we succeeded in our call to #ExtendtheReg for a million young people who would otherwise be disenfranchised by anti-poor COVID policies.

Having access to experts through the certificate program was amazing. The course is so practical. I set up google ads for the first time and created our digital security policy and implementation plan. Our whole team uses the campaign strategy template now. Now we know how to improve our email deliverability and started a texting program.
The Digital Campaigning Certificate Program was immensely helpful, and I continue to apply its learnings in my daily communications and strategizing.
Working with SMT was easy and collaborative. The training helped our Greenpeace Southeast Asia team get new insights into campaign best practices across the globe.
