💪 What we do and who we support: 💪
Nonprofit and civic organizations work to deliver critical missions across the country, more vital in the current climate than ever before. The people on the front lines of these missions, don't always have the resources they need to deliver these critical programs. That’s where RfG comes in! We bring together people of varied skills and experiences to build technology solutions that benefit nonprofits. Our core values include: serving nonprofit missions, fostering learning and building community, and creating educational opportunities for technologists regardless of skill level.
We’ve worked with incredible nonprofit partners like Habitat for Humanity, The Homeless Children’s Playtime Project, and the Humane Society, spanning missions from supporting children in the foster care system, to environmental and wildlife conservation, and beyond. Our oldest app, DiaperBase, a diaper inventory system we created in 2016, that began as a solution for one diaper bank, is now a multitenant app that serves over 100 diaper banks, and indirectly serves over a million families and children.
🤝 Fostering learning and building community: 🤝
As part of RfG’s core value of fostering learning, we ensure that the process of building solutions for critical causes creates an avenue for people entering the development community to have an opportunity to learn from others, often building long-term mentorship relationships and friendships.
💕 Why we need your support: 💕
While we don’t charge anything for our services, there are still costs associated with hosting, domain registrations, software/hardware, and all the other things needed to keep the trains running on time. Your support and partnership would enable us to continue building innovative technology solutions, fostering learning for the nascent development community, and bringing together the tech community.
We hope you will stand with us! ☺️
