Inspiration

Helping people

What it does

Connects non-profit organizations who are in need to specific supplies to donors who have those supplies but might not necessarily know who to give it to for most effective use

How I built it

Use Django to build a web app and the Google Maps API to help the donor find the closest organizations

Challenges I ran into

Django was hard to read and follow because it was an unfamiliar structure; debugging is a thing that is hard

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We finished the project We learned a lot about web apps and Google Maps API

What I learned

Django and Google Maps API

What's next for The Giving Tree
