Which charity should receive the 72 hours of the Ale 2.0 donated time?
A month ago attendees of a meetup called Ale 2.0 donated 72 hours of their time to help out a charity with a low/no marketing budget.
In the last month 5 charities have pitched for the work.
Below is a summary of what each charity does, and what they would do with the donated time.
We'd be so grateful if you could retweet/pass on this blog post so that all the charities get a boost and their message gets spread a little wider.
