Thanks to Symantec and All the Tech Things
for sponsoring Pi-Tops v2. We now have 4 in total for our upcoming events and collaborations. ❤️❤️❤️

It's an extraordinary time we are going through, our everyday lives are completely disrupted the last three weeks, and we are adapting.

To all the folks on the frontline from various industries keeping the country ticking on, they deserve our hugest support and recognition. 👏👏👏

There are volunteer groups who from took initiative from the first official announcement from the government about social isolation and call to action like Open Source Ventilator Project and the Covid-19 Cloth Face Masks for All Ireland Facebook group. I recently joined the 3D Printing Ireland Facebook group who are printing face shields for frontline health workers. If you have a 3D printer or know of folks/organisations who can get involved, do join in the various volunteer efforts. 💪🏼

Also, just heard that Bank of Ireland is providing €1m in emergency funding for communities impacted by Covid-19. If there's info like that, let me know and I'll share it far and wide.

🤔We are still interested in finding out what you are interesting in learning, especially now that we are indoors and would be a great opportunity to learn new skills.

🤲We mentioned this in our newsletter last month. We want to try and make Coding Grace sustainable, our huge expense is our accountant each year. So we are trying out Open Collective and we are open to donations from individuals and corporates. We are not-for-profit and it's wholly volunteer-based running it.
