Community Connect | Windsor State School
Community Connect is a safe and easy way for community groups to connect with each other quickly in disaster situations, like floods or fire that are becoming more frequent with climate change. A community leader creates their own private login just for their community, sending the link to their members. Members then post what they need help with or how they can help others. During the floods this year our school connected families to help each other, but it was hard, and some people missed out. Our app will help community groups connect easily, helping communities with disaster recovery worldwide.
