For Non-Profits

"Google Calendar has effectively changed the way Idealist.org is able to operate... In early 2006, we looked into many alternatives and ultimately settled on adopting Google Calendar across the organization. Within weeks, we were easily coordinating meetings in Portland, New York, DC, Buenos Aires, Geneva, and in the airports we all too frequently occupy. Two years later, Google Calendars is as much a part of our organization as our 'practical idealism.'"

- Jake Brewer, Director of Partnerships, Idealist.org
