Why
Demotech's ideas need to be communicated more clearly to a wider public. It also needs more people to assist in the running of Demotech and financial support.
How
Volunteers are needed to work on various design projects and to raise funds. The list below outlines some of the possible ways to maximise Demotech's potential. If you are interested in working on any of these proposals or have an idea of your own, Demotech would be very grateful for your assistance.
