In May 2020, a community of tech volunteers launched Help a Charity with local charity partnership 10GM. Help a Charity aimed to explore how the tech community could support charities to get online in response to COVID.
Since Help a Charity launched in May 2020...
76 charities asked for help
50+ tech volunteers signed up to help
44 requests were matched or completed.
There are a bunch of positive stories, which we’ll share soon.

WHAT IS THIS EVENT?
What we launched in May 2020 was very much an initial prototype. We've learned a ton of stuff about what works and what doesn't. We're really keen to share what we've found and work with the tech community to develop and scale this project so we can help more charities.
This event is open to anyone who wants to find out more about Help a Charity and how you can get involved in designing the future service. Specifically, we'll be designing what we offer to charities and how we support tech volunteers to deliver it.

Hope to see you there,
Harriet, Bex & the HAC community
