Dedicated to building open source technology solutions in service of critical missions, to make the world gooder.
Über uns
💪 What we do and who we support: 💪 Nonprofit and civic organizations work to deliver critical missions across the country, more vital in the current climate than ever before. The people on the front lines of these missions, don't always have the resources they need to deliver these critical programs. That’s where RfG comes in! We bring together people of varied skills and experiences to build technology solutions that benefit nonprofits. Our core values include: serving nonprofit missions, fostering learning and building community, and creating educational opportunities for technologists regardless of skill level. We’ve worked with incredible nonprofit partners like Habitat for Humanity, The Homeless Children’s Playtime Project, and the Humane Society, spanning missions from supporting children in the foster care system, to environmental and wildlife conservation, and beyond. Our oldest app, DiaperBase, a diaper inventory system we created in 2016, that began as a solution for one diaper bank, is now a multitenant app that serves over 100 diaper banks, and indirectly serves over a million families and children. 🤝 Fostering learning and building community: 🤝 As part of RfG’s core value of fostering learning, we ensure that the process of building solutions for critical causes creates an avenue for people entering the development community to have an opportunity to learn from others, often building long-term mentorship relationships and friendships. 💕 Why we need your support: 💕 While we don’t charge anything for our services, there are still costs associated with hosting, domain registrations, software/hardware, and all the other things needed to keep the trains running on time. Your support and partnership would enable us to continue building innovative technology solutions, fostering learning for the nascent development community, and bringing together the tech community. We hope you will stand with us!

A huge thank you to everyone who came out to the Ruby for Good 2024 event! We worked on 4 amazing projects: Pet Rescue, to find homes for animals in shelters, CASA or court appointed special advocates that supports kids in the foster care system, Stocks in the Future that helps kids in marginalized communities gain financial literacy and learn about the stock market and investing, and our biggest project — Human Essentials, the inventory app, that facilitated the delivery of over 66 million diapers and period supplies in the past year. We also enjoyed karaoke, played games, hiked, made friendship bracelets, and enjoyed campfires and s'mores! All this incredible work would not be possible without -- you! The people that work on these projects to help make the world gooder! This work continues throughout the year, so please join us and build community while giving back. See you soon! #socialimpact #opensource #coding #programming #github #rubyonrails #developers #uxdesign #uxdesigner #productmanager

Are you a #uxdesigner looking to help animals find a forever home? The Ruby for Good Pet Rescue project needs some support! This would be a great opportunity to build your portfolio, network, and contribute to a live project making a tangible impact! Look for the #petrescue channel in slack to get started: https://lnkd.in/ee8BMQZA #socialimpact #opensource #coding #programming #github #rubyonrails #developers #uxdesign #productdesigner #productmanager
Any product designers interested in helping pets in need? Ruby for Good Pet Rescue project is roaring towards MVP but we would love to have a designer help us with a few things. We are using a theme and have existing Figma designs, but need help with some organization of things on the page. Comment below if you're, or you know someone who might be, interested!

This is really, really cool! 🤩 The Rails team set 2024 as the release date for Rails 8, AND they’ve put out an initial roadmap of what’s going to be included! We’re pretty excited about the built-in basic authentication generation and where that conversation leads. Which upcoming feature are you most excited about?
