any way to help a rural shelter go online with shelter management software?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

i recently came across this conversation in which a small successful shelter is still processing all its pets with hard copy paperwork, no shelter management software.

i offered to learn and help but the main preceived problem seems to be a lack of high speed internet in the region.

if anyone can help with a solution, please check it out. i will be happy to host a program on my vps or do anything else if it can be part of a solution.

i have never used shelter management software but would like to learn.

Shelter Management Software

Blasphemist's picture

I am big on free open source software (FOSS) and when I saw this post I did a quick search for software to help this group. This is a link to the first package I came to-
http://sheltermanager.sourceforge.net/home.php
This runs locally or on a web site and seemed to have very good features from my very much non-expert perspective. I am willing to try and help with this if needed.

Thanks

Thanks blasphemist. This

Thanks blasphemist.

This shelter does not seem interested in going electronic...

I think the creator of that software may be on Drupal, but am not sure.
