Commons Project: DEI Framework
We’re kicking off a new year with the annual Commons contributor survey.
This anonymous survey is intended to give you space to share your feedback and experience in the Salesforce.org Commons program over the past year (2022). This community is yours — your feedback is critical to ensure the spaces we create work for you. Your responses help us understand the impact the Commons has on you and the community, what’s working well and what needs improvement, and how we can continue to support and engage with contributors like you.
If you’ve participated in the Commons by attending a Community Sprint, attending a Mini-Sprint, or volunteering your time on a project team in the past year in the past year (2022), please take 5-10 minutes to complete the survey by Friday, January 21st.
Thank you for the time, energy, and skills you’ve contributed to the Commons and community-led projects whether this was your first year or your 10th. You continue to inspire me every day, and I’m looking forward to engaging in 2023.

We've been to Baltimore, but not DC itself. We used to host our events in hotel ballrooms, so always tended to host in cities more accessible to our Nonprofit community, cost wise, and ones that were generally within driving distance from other large cities.
Since we've come back post-covid we host in Salesforce office spaces where they have enough space to hold about 100 Sprinters which are generally the towers in bigger cities. It's very possible we could come to DC in the future if there is a space we can use.
For virtual, during covid we held 100% virtual events, but for the upcoming November Sprint in SFO, we're piloting our first hybrid experience. Sign up before Thursday if you're interested in participating with us on Nov 2nd and 3rd :)
Heads up OSC Teams and volunteers!
Because of this move, existing links to the Open Source Commons documentation on the Power of Us Hub site will no longer be accessible after July 15th. There will NOT be a redirect in place for our docs, so any prior link directed to the Hub will result in the "We Moved" page message.
New OSC Doc link (on Salesforce Help & Training site)
I've updated the group side panel with the new links, but please do the same in your group(s) if you've linked to them.
Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!

Are you looking for a fun way to contribute your Salesforce skills to solve common challenges for Nonprofits and Schools? I’m thrilled to announce that registration is NOW OPEN for the next Salesforce.org Community Sprint event, happening virtually May 4th & 5th!
Part of the Salesforce.org Open Source Commons program, Community Sprint events are unique engagement opportunities where the Nonprofit and Education community come together to collaborate and innovate together to solve common challenges and contribute solutions that create lasting impact.
At the event, you’ll contribute your Salesforce User, Admin, or Developer skills to community-led projects to help them reach their goals. You don’t need to be a developer or to be highly technical to attend. Everyone is invited and encouraged to participate.
Help us make sure ALL feel invited and welcome at this event, especially those that have never been to a Sprint before. We encourage you to share this event within your network to help with our recruitment efforts. We all want to feel included and sometimes a personal invitation makes all the difference.

@Elisa Rustenbach no, you don't have to be available all day so if you have a meeting to attend or need to walk the dog/feed the kids/take a break it's completely ok to step away. Participants usually have so much fun working on their team they tend to want to stay all day, but it's not a requirement by any means :)
As a new Sprinter, the most important parts are the first few hours of Day 1 so you understand the flow of the event and how you'll contribute to the goals of your chosen team.
Register for our next mini sprint on March 10th! There's something for everyone to help out with regardless of your skills and experience. We would love a few data nerds to work with @Sarah Pilzer on analyzing participant survey data as well as marketing and social media nerds to collab with @Sindhuja Ram and @Brie Kramer. If you don't fit into either of those categories there's still plenty to work on with me and others.
Happy 2022 Contributors! Will you take 10 mins to share feedback about your Open Source Commons (OSC) contribution experiences in our brand new survey?
That’s right, I’m kicking off a fresh new year with a brand new survey! For the first time ever, we are launching the Open Source Commons Contributor survey to better understand the impact the OSC has had on you as an individual and on the Salesforce.org community at large. Your feedback will help us improve the OSC program, how we support and engage with the community and contributors, and will be completely anonymous. Aggregated results and responses may be shared internally and through external social channels.
If you’ve attended a Community Sprint or Mini-Sprint event, or volunteer your time on a project team, please take 5-10 minutes to complete the survey by Friday, January 21st!
