Hi all,

I have recently released a project on my website
called the Free Software Charities Register. The aim
of the project is to create a web based database of
case studies where charities are using free software
to help them save money.

I have also backed this project up with a
comprehensive document discussing how Linux can help
charities.

These resources are at:

  http://www.jonobacon.org/projects/charitiesregister/

Although these resources are online, I could do with
the help of the UK LUG community to fill the register
up, and get some more charities using Linux. I ask for
your help in two ways:

 - First, could you let any charities that you know to
add their details to the register. If they dont want
to , you can get their information and add them with
their permission.

 - Second, send the document I have written; Linux For
Charities out to new charities to help them change
over to Linux.

If we make use of the UK network of LUGs, we can make
quite a difference.

Cheers,

  Jono
