Case Studies

Volunteer projects led by our founder, from programs that survive every handoff to a community that closed a funding gap. All of them were done before North Star Computing was founded.

• Wilsonville Football Touchdown Club: from scattered files and shared passwords to a handoff that works

  A parent volunteer club that lost its files and logins every year now hands off to new parents with nothing lost.

  Implemented by our founder as a volunteer, before founding North Star Computing. Our founder has run this model as a volunteer for the Wilsonville Football Touchdown Club for 12 years.

  A program that had dwindled to one person raised enough to replace about 90% of its equipment within a couple of seasons.

  Set up by our founder as a volunteer, before North Star Computing was founded.
