What CRM approach to use for Open Outreach? CiviCRM? native Drupal CRM?
Membership management and other CRM functionality is a common need for the nonprofits and activist organizations that the Open Outreach Drupal distribution aims to serve. With basic organizational website needs now covered in Open Outreach, turning to CRM is a key next step.
But how? CiviCRM integration? Or native Drupal CRM functionality?
We'd love to hear from both CiviCRM users and integrators and those working on native Drupal CRM solutions.
CiviCRM code and documentation sprints
Following our training, we'll be having a week long code and documentation sprint 27th February to 2nd March to work on further developing and improving CiviCRM. The code sprint will be concentrating on the new CiviMobile platform and improved testing for CiviCRM. The documentation sprint will look at documenting new features and improving existing documentation. Sprints are a great way to contribute to CiviCRM, get to know others in the CiviCRM community, learn some practical skills , and take your involvement in CiviCRM to the next level.

5 motivators of giving in Open Source Ecology, CiviCRM
Hello everybody,
we are trying to implement the 5 motivators of giving, as shared by in the TED Talk of Taylor Conroy - How to Build a School in 3 Hours (worth watching, 19min) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aC02SmuOxYI . The motivators are: Group Mentality, Tangible Outcome, Microgiving, Personal Connection and Recognition. We believe that these are indeed motivators and we want to integrate them in the CiviCRM Personal Campaigns.
Who are we and what we are doing?
