DESCRIPTION
Tech Tools for Social Good starts with the recent earthquake in Haiti and discusses ways people can get involved and give back from the armchair revolution to volunteering in a long-term capacity build around my own experiences as a volunteer full-time in 2009 and time as a Kiva Fellow.
