Dear Liberation Tech Colleagues,

Tech Networks of Boston(TNB) and TNB Labs (TNBL) are pleased to invite you
to a Roundtable session on how best practices for nonprofits that want to
find and make use of public data. Our featured guest will be George Reuter
of Compass Working Capital.

Here is what George says about this session:

“Have you written a needs statement for your nonprofit recently? Struggled
with what indicators to collect to evaluate your program? Nonprofits are
regularly asked to put their mission and their program activities in the
context of (or alongside) benchmark comparison data. “Collective impact”
initiatives frequently ask nonprofits to align their activities toward key
outcomes that are collected consistently in multiple geographies.
Meanwhile, government entities at all levels are increasingly making access
to public data a priority. Join us for a conversation about public data
sources, tools to manipulate and visualize that data, and some examples of
how to frame your nonprofits’ story (your mission and impact!) using
publically available data.”

Registration is free of charge for nonprofit professionals; however, you
MUST have a confirmed reservation in order to attend!  To make your
reservation, please follow this link:

in which you will be welcome to share your knowledge and experience with
your peers!

Best regards from Deborah
