Pro-bono Job Can Turn Out To Be Interesting

This year, I volunteered to be a co-leader for the Girl Scouts. I’ve been asked to build our troops a private portal for the leaders to communicate with the parents and also a safe place for parents, leaders and scouts alike to upload and share photos we take through the year.

I’m still chewing on what I should use to build this portal. As you know, being a WordPress buff, my first instinct is to use that and I very well may. But on the other hand I also want this to be a very ‘social’ space. This is actually quite exciting for me because even though I won’t earn any money from this, but it gives me a good chance to exercise my skills and expand my knowledge. In the end, it will serve my clients well. Besides, it is a nice feeling to give back to the community and perhaps strengthen my local presence.

I’ll post here again when I get the site done to report what tools I used and the challenges.
