What we’re about
The Irish Red Cross has become the first Red Cross ever to capture information about what every day citizens of a country are willing to donate to those in crisis (beyond money), including accommodation, support services and goods.

As volunteer technologists we are supporting the Red Cross to develop this concept. We built a 34 language platform for data capture which we have made freely available to humanitarian organisations.

We are running a brain-storming session next Tuesday. The skillsets that will be of assistance to the Red Cross are as follows:
- Developers (Back End, Front End, API dev)
- Analytics & Data Science skills (MySQL, Tableau, Search and Matching, Machine Learning)
- Product/UX/Design (Form Design, Workflow)
- People experienced managing global multi-language Websites
- Humanitarians, Activists, Social/Community Workers, Journalists, Academics
