Welcome to the Ubuntu at Work community

September 15, 2009 in How you can get involved in Ubuntu at Work by Vibha

Hi, thanks for joining the Ubuntu at Work community. Our mission is to help women micro entrepreneurs escape poverty.  We do this two ways: first, we ‘friend’ women micro entrepreneurs and help them identify business opportunities and be better and more successful entrepreneurs; second, we help them produce and market green, edgy products developed by our collaborating designers.

We’ve just migrated to a new social networking platform very kindly developed for us by Thej. We’re resolving a few teething problems, so please bear with us while we complete the migration.

If you’re wondering how to help us, you can help us by:

1) if you are so inclined, designing green products our women micro entrepreneurs can produce;

2) if you live in a developing country, become a local Ubuntu at Work volunteer who friends women micro entrepreneurs;

3) wherever you are, start a local Ubuntu at Work Chapter that helps market the products our women produce;

4) and of course, we’d love your help with fundraising.
