PROCESSES WE LIKE

Doing Good For Nothing isn’t working in a vacuum.  There are a number of similar organizations and processes out there to help.  Here are a few we particularly like!

  1. One Net Nights – “Give us your tech, marketing or design problem for a night—so you can get back to making the world a better place.”
  2. Once a Quarter – similar to DGFN, but focused on broad engagement for strategic planning sessions.  Headed up by the wise folk at Calliope Learning.
