Is the asana team working normally with covid19? i need support but i didn’t get a response.
Thanks

Hi @Ruth,
Our team is absolutely working normally, though I can only imagine how busy it has gotten.
recently.

If you like, kindly post your use case in the main forum (unless it’s a nonprofit use case, then absolutely post it there), then private message me the link. I’d be happy to hop on to help! If I need access to a billing tool or terminal (for back-end adjustments to your Asana) then I wont be able to help, but if I can offer guidance I absolutely will .

Is the Asana advisor program only for non-profits who are currently on a paid plan? I have someone (my Exec Director) who is blind and needs help and we are all remote! She isn’t very tech savvy either.

Hi @Samantha_Jackson,
While the Asana Advisor program is designed for nonprofits on our nonprofit discount, I’m going to post your request with our Certified Pros to see if someone is able to provide some pro-bono assistance. If possible, they will reach out to you via a message directly.

Thank you @Michael_A
