Certified Problem Solver

The project 'TechForUkraine' refers to a major campaign by the verified non-profit 'Tech To The Rescue' (techtotherescue.org). While the submission itself was of extremely low quality (containing spam-like claims such as 'most people have used my product' and missing data), external verification confirms the organization is highly impactful. Tech To The Rescue has connected over 1,500 tech companies with 1,400+ NGOs, delivering an estimated $7M+ in pro-bono tech services, including critical support during the Ukraine crisis. The organization is a Google.org grantee. The score reflects the high proven utility and traction of the actual entity, significantly penalized in the 'Response Quality' metric due to the poor submission.
