It’s a beautiful morning to unload some things you no longer need and benefit great community organizations who can use them.
We're excited to have @PCsforPeople at this Saturday's Un-Dumpster Day collecting working and nonworking computers at Southeast High School, 3500 E Meyer Blvd, KCMO, from 8 a.m. to noon. Clear that clutter! More info at reusefull.org/un-dumpster-da….

#UnDumpsterDay was a huge success! An estimated 250 cars came with clothing, computers, furniture, games and other household items. We really appreciate South-Broadland Presbyterian Church hosting us! Thanks to @fox4kc for helping us spread the word! #upcycling #payitforward
As the recipient of a $64 million investment through The Audacious Project, we just unveiled @TEDTalk our big idea to modernize America’s social safety net. We’re proud to be a part of @TheAudaciousPrj’s new cohort of inspiring changemakers.

Listen in to hear from our founder and learn more about how you can use Re.Use.Full to help more people and pets in our community with your still-good stuff.
Excited to announce I’ll be on @kcur tomorrow (9/21) about 9:30 a.m. to talk about @beReUseFull. I recommend listening any time but would be especially honored if you tuned in to this episode of @KCURUpToDate. Thanks, @stevekraske, for inviting me!

Some professional news: I'll be joining @beacon_news as a @Report4America Corps Member this summer! I will be covering local government accountability with a data focus, and I can't wait to dive into everything that makes Kansas City tick.

Hey @nicolergalloway I really like your stance on openness and transparency in government. As a technologist and a member of @open_stl I wonder, how will you leverage technology to achieve a higher level of transparency and openness?
