What Drives Us

We believe technology can intervene to solve problems. We work with communities to design responses to the issues about which they care the most. We start with community and end with a solution. Our methodology:

WHAT WE're working on

SafeNight Building virtual shelters with mobile phones. Pilot: California SafeNight provides staff members at domestic violence service organizations with a secure way to crowdsource funding from supporters who have downloaded the SafeNight app. When an individual is in urgent need of shelter, a qualified staff member at a domestic violence service organization can initiate a request for hotel room funding. Supporters who have downloaded SafeNight will receive a notification that an individual is in need and have an opportunity to immediately cover the cost of the hotel room. We are currently in development. We have the concept paper available.

About We believe in the power of community. Whether you define community by geography, by a shared desire for change, or by a common set of skills, we believe that we can work together to deliver projects that are aligned with your needs and make real change. We do this by listening through action: Creating and delivering the resources necessary for technology planning and implementation; organizing community needs in tools like the Hack for Good README Guides, and by engaging deeply with issue areas over time. We apply our technological imaginations to what we learn and quickly iterate on projects so that, together, we can make an impact. Caravan Studios is a division of TechSoup Global, a 501(c)3.
