Techies Giving Away Websites
April 8, 2013
A lot can happen in 72 hours whencaffeine is involved. That's what GiveBack DC organizers found out last year when they recruited top DC tech talent to help three nonprofits (DC Diaper Bank, Phoenix Bikes, and Borromeo Housing) in need of new WordPress or Drupal websites. The Web Development Group, which organizes the event, has recently opened up the application process for this year, which will feature more volunteers and at least one more nonprofit.GiveBack DC and WDG founder Ab Emam says it isn't only the nonprofits that are selected. Last year, 100 DC techies volunteered and only 40 were chosen. Ab says the event is a good opportunity for peers from local web agencies to work together for charity.
