Software development volunteering opportunity:

Community Impact Network

We would like to highlight the extraordinary work our ChangeMakers are doing by showcasing their created content and impact metrics across a network-wide activity feed. This will enable our ChangeMakers, and businesses to see the results of their participation, feel a part of a larger community, and create a groundswell of participation from yet-to-be-discovered ChangeMakers across our region.

Our initial web app (beta) focused on creating a marketplace and facilitating complementary currency transactions among ChangeMakers and local businesses. Although we have crafted a community on the ground around this, our current web app does little to showcase, gamify, and curate the impact our ChangeMakers are making.

We would like to improve our Proof of Impact (POI) functionality to will enable ChangeMakers to define impactful work for themselves. However, we create a framework for this definition using the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Proof of Impact enables ChangeMakers to generate content (such as before and after photos, video testimonials, etc) and data (impact metrics) about the work that they've done. We aim to have the web app pull metadata from content (such as photo location and time-stamps) to further validate their claims. From their work, ChangeMakers will earn 15CC/hour ($15 value).

This POI will be showcased in a network-wide activity feed viewable by all users across the network. Other ChangeMakers (CMs) and businesses will then approve their work based on the validity of documentation.

The proof of impact will be segmented by tags indicating the type of work, and impact area (SDGs). As ChangeMakers create Proof of Impact (POI), standard POI templates will allow CMs that complete similar work to document their work using the same templates. Additionally, these tags will enable disparate CMs to find others doing similar work and combine efforts. Certain POIs could eventually be segmented into initiatives/projects/or campaigns and viewable as such.
