drupal for good

Platform Cooperativism

Would anybody be interested in teaming together for New England GiveCamp? It's a weekend-long event where you build a site from scratch for a non-profit organization.

In particular, we could use it as an opportunity to build an actual Drupal 8 site. So, great learning experience, you'd get a bonafide D8 site to your name, and it's for a good cause.

Nov 6-8 (Fri-Sun)
Watertown, MA

Mastering Drupal

In March, OC Drupal had the pleasure of having Kala from the local non-profit "From Goals To Wells" present her website as we all attempted to navigate through it trying to solve the problems at hand; albeit without success due to site.

This month, tentatively scheduled for Sat, April 19th 9a to 3p, we are going to go further in helping FGW achieve their goals by hacking through a website from the ground up.

Hi everybody,

Lee Vodra and I (two of the founders of Droplabs, a Drupal-friendly coworking space in Los Angeles, and creators of the Coders with a Cause program) will be presenting on barn raisings and "Drupal for Good" in action at the Non-Profit Drupal Summit at GLADCamp next month.

Hi all, I'm happy to announce that VozMob Drupal Distro (VozMobDD) version 0.5.1 has been released. VozMobDD is Drupal customized as a widely accessible mobile blogging platform. VozMobDD has been designed to make it easy to post content to Drupal from regular mobile phones via voice calls, SMS, or MMS.

At Drupalcon? Join us Thursday 12-1PM in the Erie meeting room for Revolutionary Drupal: Coding and Supporting Social Change

Technology doesn't drive social change, but it is one tool used -- from the streets of revolutionary Cairo to community organizers in Detroit. Can we help support these social change movements with Drupal? Are there ways we can code and structure Drupal projects to make them more useful to activists? Does Drupal have a role in protests and strategic direct action?

This session will be an open discussion for those working around social change, case studies of using Drupal, and brainstorming for ways we could collaborate or support Drupal projects that support social change.

Hi all,

Hope you're all well! Anyone from this group going to DrupalDevDays Brussels?
Would be good to meet and have an informal panel / chat about "Drupal for Good", just like in DC Paris.

Best,
Nuno
