AZGiveCamp Helping Those Who Help Others
Chandler, Ariz- Chandler’s tech professionals are putting their skills to good use by donating three days worth of work to area non-profit organizations. The event is AZGiveCamp, May 21 -23 at the Downtown Chandler Community Center, 125 E. Commonwealth.
Billed as ‘fun, geeky, and good for the community,’ AZGiveCamp pairs professional software developers, designers and database administrators with Arizona non-profit organizations who need help with anything from Web sites, to databases or new software applications.
GiveCamps have been hosted throughout the US, but this is the first of its kind in Arizona. The projects typically would cost the non-profit organizations up to $10,000, and most of the projects are designed to help the non-profits become more efficient, saving time and money that can instead be used to help the people they serve.
AZGiveCamp is looking for sponsors to help the volunteers get through the three-day session, as many of them spend the entire time on-site working on their projects. They need help with meals and snacks, software to be used in Web site development, prizes for giveaways, t-shirts and name tags and goodie bag items.
