Delivering high-impact phone support, featuring DonorsChoose

Effective phone support can have a powerful impact, especially for non-profit and community organizations. Whether guiding valuable donors through questions or delivering in-the-moment support to students and volunteers, the immediate, personal touch of a phone call goes a long way. Zendesk makes phone support easy with Zendesk Talk, a VoIP phone support solution built right into the Zendesk ticket support system. Easy to set up, easy to use, and cost-effective—it's a perfect fit for non-profit organizations.

DonorsChoose, a leading nonprofit that allows individual donors to contribute directly to teachers in high-need communities, initially used Zendesk only to support contributors and teachers via email. After noticing that many members of their community were eager to speak directly with a DonorsChoose employee, they introduced Zendesk Talk for phone support. Now, they are able to assist high-value donors and nurture projects in new regions, while maintaining their commitment to organizational transparency and efficiency.
 
You'll learn how DonorsChoose:

• provide 2 million + supporters and 680,000+ project leaders with seamless, multichannel support;
• guide teachers and donors through complex project lifecycles; and,
• maintain operational efficiency as they scale phone support operations.
