You look hungry. Join us and eat something! There's nothing wrong with our connection. Jaida simply turned a trip through Ontario into an analog Zoom call. Technology brings us together every day, but it's always special to see each other in person. We even left our AI chatbots at home.
Our team got together to think, eat, and strategize about projects that center users and advance the public good.
The best collaborations outlast projects. Cheers to another round.
Happy birthday to our Warm, Witty, Wonderful, Wise WordPress Wizard, Jeff Hebert!
Jeff brings sanity to hard problems and makes the work feel like play. He turns chaos into steps anyone can follow, then deflects applause faster than a speeding bullet.
The real magic is the people. Good ones gather around Jeff the way tennis balls gather around his dog Cooper. May the year be a monument to that magnetism!
The better idea: find a soul that finds compiling Linux kernel fun so I don't have to do that.
Come for the collaboration. Stay for the fruit plate.
We always treasure the opportunities to get together in person. We thrive online, but a high-five just hits harder in real life.
Our directors carved out time to get together in Toronto and think together, eat together, and build together. We're grateful for this team that continually steers us toward the work that serves people.

Happy Kalaversary, Eugene!
Robert L. Peters said "Design creates culture. Culture shapes values. Values determine the future."
Eugene infuses this idea into everything she does, from the Gentle Density Toolbox for Small Housing BC to the admissions website redesign for University of Toronto Scarborough.
She creates strong foundations that others can build on.
Happy Kalaversary, Eugene! We're so glad you're on the team. Cheers to designing the future together!
Happy 4-year Kalaversary to Kristina! She started building websites at 8 years old and never stopped. In classic Kristina fashion, she did not need permission to get good at something.
She builds things that work right and feel right. She notices the gaps, fills them quietly, and makes everyone around her more capable.
Cheers to more years of being abnormally amazing. Happy Kalaversary, Kristina!
Happy 6-year Kalaversary to Anya!
Some people find the light. Anya builds the switch.
She's our Director of Technology, though if you asked her to describe herself she'd still say "Drupal Developer." She taught herself to code, then taught herself to lead, then started making sure everyone around her had what they needed to do the same.
She celebrates curiosity, not just outcomes. Six years of that kind of light. Here's to many more!
Happy 12-year Kalaversary to Ken! Ask what he does at Kalamuna and he'll shrug β "a bunch of admin stuff."
Invoices, expenses, HR, event bookings, travel, marketing strategy, MCing the weekly meeting β he rattles it off like a grocery list. But what it means is the rest of us get to focus on the work we love because Ken is backstage handling everything around it.
Cheers to twelve more years of that quiet, steady care. He's more than Kenough. #TeamWorkMakesTheDreamWork

Happy Birthday to @mallis, our mon capitaine!
From AI to analog, URL to IRL and back again, Andrew takes in the horizon while zooming in on the details that matter.
Under his care, weβve helped institutions advance missions and built platforms that put people at the heart of everything we do.
Cheers to another year of enlightened thinking, joyful living, and a better internet! π
