Workshop for Good

In the spring I was frustrated with the limitations of our budget and put together a fundraiser we called the Workshop for Good (http://workshopforgood.org). My friends Amy Hoy, Ezra Zygmuntowicz, and I instructed a two day workshop to adults from across the country interested in learning the Ruby on Rails web application platform. The workshop was featured on the O’Reilly Radar, Ruby on Rails Official Weblog, and other sites across the web. In the end we raised $10,000 for the students of Chávez. We’re hoping to put together another iteration of the workshop for another charity this summer.
