Helping people learn to program is an amazing experience.
The most visible volunteer positions within RailsBridge are the workshop sponsors, organizers, teachers, and TAs. They make each workshop happen!
Want to teach?
Yay! Head over to the upcoming workshops page to see if one is coming up near you. If not, get in touch with your local chapter (or start one if it doesn't exist).
Want to organize?
Fantastic. Read through the organizing page and fill out our short interest form!
Want to host or sponsor?
That's awesome. Check out our information for hosts and Donor FAQ.

- Help our teachers level up by creating more in-depth teacher training
Help build new tools
- Help us improve Bridge Troll, our open source event management app.

Get the word out
- We need to tell the world what we're doing! PR dabblers welcome!
- Blogging. Writers are the best.
- Tweeting, Facebooking, LinkedIn-ing: social media is fun.
Strategize and fundraise
- We're building an organization called Bridge Foundry to help us (and other orgs) manage our funds (and people) better!
- RailsBridge is growing a ton, and we can always use strategists and do-ers to help us think big and make those epic plans a reality
