Some geeks are blogging about the event.

Coders For Charities is a 3-day charity event that pairs charities and local software developers. The last event took place April 25-27, 2008 at Centriq Training in Leawood, KS. Charities often do not have the funds to implement a new website, intranet or database solution. Software developers often do not volunteer for charities because their skills do not apply. This event is the perfect marriage of these two needs; software developers accepting the challenge by volunteering their time to help charities, who in turn can better serve their community though the latest technology! Email info@coders4charities.org if you would like to be part of future events!

Coders For Charities is a member of the GiveCamp alliance.
