Chris Hughes quotes about
I knew I wanted to do something at the nexus of what I call global development and technology.
By 2007, we were finally living in a culture where people get what networks are and what technology can do to connect people.
I really want to move away from the old model in which you have to rely on people giving $10 after a humanitarian crisis to a newer model where people give money but also their time and their skills, whatever they have, to the causes that are personally meaningful to them well before the crisis moment presents itself.
