WANTED: Skills to Do Good

Are you looking for a way to make a difference? Do you have a skill that would benefit a local organization or group?

Take for example, Alexis' story. "Alexis is a database professional who created a Salesforce Database for Room to Grow, saving the organization $24,000!  As a result of her hard work, Room to Grow is a more efficient organization with greater capacity to serve more beneficiaries. Alexis's database has helped impoverished NYC families receive the tools they need to ensure their babies have what they need to develop in their first three years of life."

So how was Alexis able to do this awesome deed? It's all thanks to Catchafire.
