When the Millennium Bug bites, who is going to pick up the pieces of the social

When the Millennium Bug bites, who is going to pick up the pieces of the social 
disruptions caused? Doubtless charities and non-profit organisations will be called
upon. For this reason, the Center for Y2K & Society has announced a grants programme
to fund preparation for such eventualities.

 

 

The grants are available only to US organisations and are intended “to support foundations
and nonprofit organizations working to prepare communities for potential disruptions
caused by the Y2K computer date problem.” If a UK source of funding for Y2K preparedness
by charities becomes available, UK Fundraising will let you know.
