Happy New Year, CiviCRM community! I bring exciting news to all of those, who have to deal with localisation (l10n) and internationalisation (i18n) - in short: everyone who is occasionally unhappy with the texts in the user interface or public forms. And yes, that might include English forms as well.

By cividesk Filed under Case studies and user storiesAn interview with Mary Ann Bopp, Development Director of Pets Alive
Pets Alive is a no-kill animal rescue organization with the mission to improve the lives of companion animals through rescue, adoption, advocacy, collaboration, intervention and education. Animals at Pets Alive range from dogs and cats to farm animals. Many of the animals at Pets Alive are older, have special needs or require specific care. Pets Alive is recognized within the local community and nationwide as a leader in developing alliances to end the killing of adoptable animals and promoting the humane treatment of animals. Cividesk recently spoke with Mary Ann Bopp, the Development Director for Pets Alive, who is responsible for the organization’s fundraising. Before joining Pets Alive, Mary Ann gained many technical skills during her 30 plus years at IBM where she became familiar with new technology and gained a real understanding of the power of technology to improve business. She also volunteered extensively at several different no-kill shelters which led to her work at Pets Alive.Dezember 13, 2018
