Software Engineering
Dig into pro bono ideas, resources, and examples from your fellow Taproot community members.
OVERVIEW
Elevate your website, build a mobile app, or upgrade your programs’ user experience with help from experts.
Technology enables your organization to bring its mission to new audiences and do critical work more efficiently and effectively. But, too often nonprofits don’t have access to specialized technical expertise.
Close the tech capacity gap for your organization by tapping into software engineering, development, and product management guidance from skilled volunteers.
