This page links to notes from the Craigslist Foundation Nonprofit Boot Camp, held in Berkeley CA on August 18 2007, and in New York NY on September 15 2007. Session titles are highlighted in blue (and are live links) if there are notes associated with them. They're red if no one's posted notes on them yet. To turn the red links blue, click on the red links and post your notes. Even if notes already exist, chances are you can make them better. If you've never edited in Wikia or Wikipedia before, you can read the Beginner's Guide, or just email me your notes and I'll post them for you (please let me know how you want to be credited, e.g. full name, web address).
You don't have to register to be able to post here, but there are benefits to registration (and it's free). Thanks; Leo|Talk
