Atlassian contributes 1% of annual profits, 1% of employee time, and 1% of company equity to the Atlassian Foundation, aimed at helping make the world better. In this talk, George Burrows shows how utilising Atlassian's products can make an impact for the Foundation in just one day. Inspired by visits to Cambodian schools, seeing first hand how Room to Read are making a difference, a group of Atlassian's used a single ShipIt to create a web presence for their fundraising chapters. George will explain how the team used Hipchat, Confluence, Trello and Bitbucket to communicate, empower, and deliver the project.
