Interview with Angela Siefer of Grassroots.org (N2Y2 Featured Project)

"One organization over in Africa that we were assisting, they were so excited with the assistance that they actually went so far as to say, 'Your assistance has meant that our staff was able to provide more assistance to the children here, so that we weren't working on the technology. We were working with the kids that we intended to serve.'"

Grassroots.org's Toolbox was a Featured Project at the NetSquared Conference (N2Y2) in May 2007. You can be a Toolbox tester by emailing Grassroots' Executive Director, Angela Siefer at angela AT grassroots DOT org.

Angela Siefer:
My name is Angela Siefer. I'm the Executive Director of Grassroots.org. We are a national nonprofit; we serve a few nonprofits in the Canada region and a few internationally, but most of our clients are in the United States.

We focus upon the use of technology as a tool for social change.
