We’re excited for CiviCon 2012 - the annual conference for CiviCRM developers, implementers, administrators and users – happening in San Francisco Bay Area on April 2nd. Aspiration will be there facilitating a community discussion and being a big CiviFan throughout.

They’ll have great speakers and breakout sessions highlighting real-world examples of nonprofits growing and sustaining relationships using CiviCRM. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, meet other users and developers, make valuable connections, and get involved in the community.



ArtSpark and Aspiration hosted a day for artists from the Bay Area and Albuquerque to come together and share stories about their use of social media and online technologies in their work.

With both individual artists and arts organizations present, a wide variety of experiences, successes and obstacles were discussed as participants dove deeper into what has and hasn't worked for their purposes.

Below are the materials used at the event:

Join us for a one day training event for Bay Area nonprofits and social justice organizations, hosted at the Google offices in Mountain View, California!

This is a great opportunity to work with three different organizations—Community Technology Network, Aspiration, and Google—offering support to empower you with tech skills so you can magnify your social justice passions and priorities. View the training materials here.

Is all of your online campaign and organizational messaging scheduled and tracked on a unified calendar that is visible to all stakeholders? This session will explain the process of creating and maintaining a messaging calendar, as well as the potential value to your organization. In addition, the design of a “narrative arc” will be described and correlated to calendaring strategies.

Aspiration's Annual NPTechie Love Fest took place right on schedule this year, 16-18 November at Preservation Park in Oakland.
