This is an online portal with information on donations that were announced publicly (or have been shared with permission) that were of interest to Vipul Naik. The git repository with the code for this portal, as well as all the underlying data, is available on GitHub. All payment amounts are in current United States dollars (USD). The repository of donations is being seeded with an initial collation by Issa Rice as well as continued contributions from him (see his commits and the contract work page listing all financially compensated contributions to the site) but all responsibility for errors and inaccuracies belongs to Vipul Naik. Current data is preliminary and has not been completely vetted and normalized; if sharing a link to this site or any page on this site, please include the caveat that the data is preliminary (if you want to share without including caveats, please check with Vipul Naik). We expect to have completed the first round of development by the end of July 2024. See the about page for more details. Also of interest: pageview data on analytics.vipulnaik.com, tutorial in README, request for feedback to EA Forum.

Dan Avery, Alan Williams and Katie Lewis hail from various cities in the U.S., but they now share something in common: they are hanging out in Akron, Ohio! These three Code for America fellows arrived in Akron on Feb. 2 as part of a partnership between Summit County and Code for America, a San Francisco based non-profit that helps cities and counties use technology to open up access to government. The fellows will work with the county to help build a technology solution for mapping out Summit’s vast and wonderful array of hiking, biking and water trails. But they won't do it alone. For the past month, the fellows have met with residents and leaders of Summit to find out how they use the park system, and to get ideas toward solving the problem of access to the park. Knight Foundation provided a $250,000 grant to help this project launch. On Feb. 19, the fellows had a chance to engage with Akron residents at a Knight Community breakfast and share their thoughts on how to approach this community-led project. Stay tuned, the […]. |
