join::table Initiatives
chairitable
Chairitable fosters (through inspiration, guidance and support) a community of pro bono technology industry professionals doing work for non-profit organizations and public schools.
Chairitable acts as a “match-maker” between interested technology professionals and non-profit and public school software application development projects. Organizations can apply to be considered for a pro bono project and pre-screened technology professionals can sign up to volunteer to be matched with a non-profit or school in need.
diversitable
The aim of Diversitable is to increase diversity in the technology industry by providing training, mentorship, job-readiness tools and connections/networking for and to traditionally under-represented groups in the technology industry. All “tablers” (what we call Diversitable participants) will be matched with a volunteer Diversitable Ambassador (a.k.a. a working professional acting as mentor) to help build and guide the “tabler” through a customized road-map/career plan of their technology industry journey.
Claris COVID response team (CCRT) partnership
join::table has partnered with Claris International to coordinate the creation of free, emergency, custom software applications needed to solve problems brought upon those in the healthcare, education, government and/or non-profit industries relating to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Apps are created by pro bono consultant volunteers and extended trial licensing is provided by Claris International. Together, the Claris Covid Response Team provides a complete solution to solve mission-critical data management problems for first responders and front-line workers in their response to this shared, global crisis.
