Program areas at WordPress Foundation

Doaction charity hackathons are community-organized events that are focused on using Wordpress to give deserving charitable organizations their own online presence. Each doaction event includes participants from the local Wordpress community coming together to build brand new websites for a number of local charitable organizations in one day. The goal of doaction is to support these charitable organizations by giving them a fresh and dynamic online presence. This enables them to get on with the work that they already do so well without basic website management getting in the way of their productivity. In may of 2022, doaction grinon, spain, was held, and by the end of the event 4 websites were created for deserving non-profit organizations. A doaction event was held in barcelona, spain, during the year with 6 attendees who succesfully built a website so an organization that aids in animal rescue and adoption. An event was held in anceu, spain, that resulted in 4 websites. Domain and hosting costs for all websites created during 2022 were sponsored by another partner organization
