Forum One Sponsors Seattle Drupal Charity Event
On June 11 and 12, Forum One joined Amazon in supporting a "Seattle Drupal Barn-raising" event. For the last few years, the Seattle Drupal community has picked a small, local nonprofit and come together to build/re-build its web presence. In addition to helping the nonprofit, these events also serve as opportunities for newer developers to receive mentoring on real projects from seasoned developers.
This year, the Seattle Genealogical Society (SGS) was selected as the nonprofit beneficary. SGS maintains a public library of research materials focusing on the history of Seattle families. It is a 501(c)(3) funded entirely by donations.
A total of 18 volunteers provided over 400 collective hours building the Drupal 7 site. Amazon provided facilities for the event, and Forum One provided food for the volunteers.
Check out the event announcement on Drupal.org.
We are pleased to have been a part of the event, and look forward to helping another nonprofit next year!
