10 Minutes
1. Quickly sketch out for the group the kind
of volunteers you’re seeking to
recruit/engage
2. Pick a part of the equation (or, do the
whole thing if you’re feeling ambitious)
3. From everything you’ve heard today, and
from what you’ve heard now, get some
ideas down for what digital can do
