Admin Bandit is on Pinterest. We’re looking forward to sharing about helpful resources, products, great organisations, inspiring people and motivational quotes.

The sessions are delivered entirely by Google employee volunteers and are designed to provide a broad, high level overview of Google’s not-for-profit solutions – everything from Gmail & Blogger to Youtube & Maps. Information will be provided on the Google Grants programme but NFP organisations are encouraged to come along regardless of whether or not they are eligible for grants. The sessions are best suited to leaders from charitable organisations that are interested in getting a general understanding of how they can use Google technology to make their organisations more effective.

Sessions are limited to only 50 people and places will be issued on a 1st come, 1st serve basis. Only one person from an organisation can attend each event. The events last year were heavily oversubscribed so it would be best to register soon.
