The Business of Giving | Mobile money and other technology made for philanthropy | Seattle Times Newspaper

The Business of Giving | Mobile money and other technology made for philanthropy | Seattle Times Newspaper: "As members of NetHope continue their annual meeting in Redmond this week, it's fascinating to look at how the landscape of technology has moved from responding to crises to creating solutions tailor-made for development itself.

These worlds are increasingly converging in places like Seattle.

On Thursday evening at MOHAI, NetHope co-founder Ed Granger-Happ of Save the Children and CIOs of Oxfam, CARE and The Nature Conservancy will talk about how information and communications technology affect the work of humanitarian agencies in 'International Relief, Development and Conservation in the Cloud.'"
