• 2009 Nonprofit Software Development Summit Tools created by Matt Garcia
  

  This is a collection of software tools represented by participants and/or otherwise used at the 2009 Nonprofit Software Development Summit in Oakland, CA.

  You can review the Agenda and session notes, as well as event pictures, Tweets from the event and the legendary DevSummit Group Photo.

  The 2009 DevSummit was the third annual convening of people and organizations developing software tools, web applications and other technology to support social justice causes. Bringing together a diverse range of users, developers, technologists, managers, eRiders, integrators and other practitioners who self-identify under the umbrella of “developing nonprofit software”, the event provided an opportunity both to gather as a community and to take stock of the field, while building connections and capacity.

  The event was generously sponsored by Mozilla, Google, and CiviCRM.

  Free and Open Source software for web servers that can help non-profits realize their mission and goals.

  We're looking for tools that real organizations are using now, and for tools that non-profits could be using that they might not realize are ready for prime time.

  This toolbox is part of the NonProfit Open Source Initiative's Free and Open Source Software Primer Project. Our goal is to maintain a living list of free and open source software tools and applicacations that can help non-profits and other civil society groups realize their goals and mission.

  We invite you to contribute to this toolbox, and to check out our other toolboxes and help us keep them relevant as well.
