support-gang -- Community Support Volunteers -- who help respond to "help AT laptop.org"
About support-gang	English (USA)
Community Support Volunteers help answer emails and/or phones to provide basic, high-quality Tech Support to One Laptop per Child owners worldwide. Our growing team of over 80 worldwide volunteers meets in Cambridge, Massachusetts and by telephone, with roughly weekly calls. Begun in December 2007, we have an amazingly enthusiastic and deeply talented diverse team. Do you have exceptional writing, technical and/or organizational abilities? Are you naturally supportive and friendly towards those who are eager to just get started? Do you demonstrate sincerity, appreciate an earnest team, and truly adore learning? Our informal group generally meets for weekly Sunday afternoon conference calls, with an international guest speaker to motivate our work, with weekly minutes published online. Contact "holt AT laptop.org" if you are interested in committing to help in any capacity, supporting our worldwide learning community. Join us by including your talents, motivations and your phone number(s) to apply -- also tell us the best times to call you -- and THANKS! Finally, other volunteer opportunities are available on our Participate page. To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the support-gang Archives. (The current archive is only available to the list members.)
