Serve IT

Serve IT clinic work for nonprofit partners, Jan 2024 to present, under the Laurie Burns McRobbie Serve IT Clinic. Students build or audit. Staff keep the site after we leave. Every project is a test of whether the next person can run what we made and still make decisions of their own.

Thank you to Serve IT for the partners and the clinic ladder. Role bullets with systems framing also live on Volunteering.

The pages

I started by testing the City of Bloomington site. After that the list is in order, and it ends with a Town of Nashville audit. That one is recommendations only. I don't edit the live town site.

Handoff guides

Short steps for everyday tools live on Handoffs (email, Apple Notes, Google Drive, Google Reviews, Meta, Canva, LinkedIn, Google Calendar, Yelp, YouTube, TikTok). Not every client got every guide. Site builders, CapCut, POS, and DoorDash live on matchaxmoxie handoffs.
