Reprinted in part from Serve.gov | We are calling on educators and web professionals to join our new effort – the 2010 MLK Day Technology Challenge. The purpose is simple: to connect schools and non-profits that have technology needs, including skills training and mentorship, with web professionals, developers, graphic designers and new media professionals who are willing to volunteer their skills for the common good.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: what are you doing for others?” We ask that you answer his call in 2010 by participating in the MLK Technology Challenge.
Typical projects include:
- Refurbish computers for schools
- Teach students how to use popular software or online services
- Build a database for a nonprofit
- Help out in your school’s computer lab
- Become an online mentor for students across the country
Read more at Serve.gov, an online resource not only for finding volunteer opportunities in the community, but also creating your own.
