This is a guide on how to make your own free software CD for NGOs, using open source and free proprietry software downloaded from the internet.

The Free Software CD for NGOs is a collection of software applications usefull for NGOs at the right price (free) and in a format that is as user-friendly as possible.

Note: This project has broader applications than simply Non Government Organisations (NGOs) but since I now work for an NGO and I'm interested in helping other "Not For Profit" organisations , my focus is providing a usefull resource for any NGO and help them put their money to more worthwhile ends.

Note: If you use my source for the HTML of the CD, Remember that, because of my intended audience, I HAVE NOT included the source code for the open source software. In some instances this is in direct contravention of the GNU Public License (GPL). If you copy my version of the CD exactly you will too will be breaking the GPL. Please consider your audience in relation to the GPL. To read why I have done this goto [About open source software and this CD|About open source software and this CD]
