About us

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.

Please see: www.redcross.ie/registerofpledges/

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
