CompuMentor

To support the Net2 ('net squared') conference organized by CompuMentor and to be held at Cisco Systems world headquarters in Silicon Valley on May 30 and 31, 2006. Grant funds will be utilized to enable CompuMentor to conduct outreach, develop application guidelines, screen candidates, and award approximately 25 conference scholarships to organizations serving at-risk populations. Conference attendees will learn how to build, sustain, and become part of a continuing online community based upon the use of the open source content management system Drupal. The ultimate goal of the Net2 project is to facilitate adoption of emerging technology tools, and demonstrate their impact and efficacy in real-time application.
