Beneblog: Technology Meets Society

AUGUST 3, 2009

This weekend, I made my first educational microloan, to Claudia Belén García Royz of Nicaragua, who is studying to be an industrial engineer. This loan was the result of a conversation I had with Kushal Chakrabarti, the founder of the Vittana Foundation. And, education is the way out of poverty.

Last March I was on a blogging panel for an event put on by the Alliance of Technology and Women. Beth Kanter raised $50,000 for the Sharing Foundation using a Network for Good Badge and similar tools to the ChipIn campaign, in three weeks. To prepare for the panel, I wrote up 10 Ways Nonprofit Can Use Blogs.
