If you're on GitHub and want to help, you can edit these country-specific pages to add your area nonprofits, organizations, volunteer opportunities, and the like:

https://github.com/nonprofitnetworks/covid

We're launching today with blank pages ready to edit for all countries, and we welcome help. My email is joel@nonprofitnetworks.org if you want to contact me about this.

I'd hate to state the obvious but why Github? It's quite a big barrier to entry for the average person (especially in places with low literacy) to write in MD, make a pull request etc. Why not just use a public Google doc or something?

Don't get me wrong. I get where you are coming from but I have gone down the Github route on a few similar projects and regretted it.
