AI-Powered CRM and VOIP platform (uses Machine Learning)-

Our non-profit will first begin with building the front-end User Interface (UI).

Data quality is an often overlooked success factor in prospecting. Sales departments lose hundreds of hours and monetary value per sales rep from using bad prospect data. Most companies know that their data is a problem, but few realize the high costs involved with ignoring it

Scholarships of up to $1,000 will be provided per student dependent upon the completed contribution and milestones

SOLUTION

We are building an AI-powered CRM that integrates with open source VOIP system. Twilio or Asterik can be used for API integration for VOIP part of application. Machine Learning will also be integrated to "teach" the system how to follow up with a company's customers or end-users.

CSR= Customer Service Rep

1. Call comes in and CSR answers 2. Call is recorded and transcribed using an AI tool like JOG.AI (the whole conversation will be transcribed in company’s CRM) 3. AI determines important areas of customer calls based on Keywords that the Customer says like "Sign Up" or "I am frustrated" or "I would like to cancel my service" 4. Based on the keywords stated by Customer, the company’s platform will generate a suggested plan of action along with a template to respond via Email or SMS Examples include: If (customer says "Sign Up") then (AI will suggest emailing "Sign Up" form template) --this will ensure management that the appropriate customers looking to Sign Up for a service receive the appropriate follow up and should increase overall sales and reduce lost leads If (customer says "I would like to cancel my service" or "I want a refund" or "I’m really unhappy/not happy with the service I received") then (AI will suggest emailing or sending an SMS for a free month of service to try to keep customer) Company CRM platform will automatically add the Customer’s name and voice transcription into a Record. The Record will also contain all logs of emails and texts with the Customer in chronological order so any CSR and Manager can see the entire lifecycle of Customer communication end-to-end. Built on top of existing CRM Theme from Code Canyon.

FotoFest is pleased to announce its fall exhibition, Hillerbrand+Magsamen: nothing is precious, everything is game, on view from October 8 through November 22, 2025, in Houston at its Silver Street Studios gallery. This exhibition is a mid-career survey of Houston-based artists Stephan Hillerbrand and Mary Magsamen, celebrating 25 years of collaboration. It is curated by Steven Evans and Madi Murphy.

Collectively known as Hillerbrand+Magsamen, the duo transforms the everyday into the extraordinary—turning household items, family rituals, and suburban chaos into playful, profound reflections on art, life, and togetherness. Their practice embraces a playful and inclusive approach to art-making, rejecting notions of exclusivity in the art world.

Houstonians will know Stephan from his many years teaching photography at UofH and HCP. Mary was the curator at Aurora Picture Show and is currently working at the Menil Collection.

Gallery Hosts are the backbone of FotoFest, they allow us to keep the exhibitions open to the public. You don’t have to be a photography expert to be a gallery host; a friendly face, neat appearance, and an interest in photography is all that is required. A FotoFest staff member will greet you in the gallery, review procedures, and give you a tour of the building and the exhibition. We are less than 2 minutes away in a nearby building and always available to assist you. The gallery can be quiet during the week, please feel free to bring your tablet/laptop, a book or a small project. Please bring a jacket or sweater with you if you tend to get cold.

All gardeners and amateur gardeners welcome! Wesley Community Center is home to the Lorraine Street Gardening Club. The land surrounding our Food Pantry is equipment with 14 garden beds and is also home to a hive of bees to help with pollination. 

We take a central planning approach and garden all plots together, maximizing the plots for the gardeners' benefit and the clients of the pantry. Because of this, we ask that you meet with our lead garden volunteer before beginning planting.

The garden is unique in that half of what we harvest goes to the food pantry to fill the grocery carts of those less fortunate in our community. The other half is split among the gardeners. The garden is open anytime the food pantry is open (9-3 T - S) and maintains a socially distanced garden get together on Saturdays. 

Join us for some time in nature, tending to our community garden and beautifying our community. We will clean up the garden beds, water the plants, pick any ripe food and clean up the property if there’s any trash around the area.

Black United Fund of Texas will provide trash bags, sunscreen and bug spray. Volunteers should wear closed toe shoes that can get dirty, bring gloves (we will have some extra if needed) and a water bottle. Restrooms are available on-site in the Bayland Center. Parking is available on site and on nearby neighborhood streets. The Bayland Center (2606 Greg St) is centrally located near downtown.

This is an amazing opportunity to make a difference in the life of a youth in foster care.

The Need

Before leaving foster care a youth:

Nationwide, only about half of the youth raised in foster care end up finishing high school; and less than 3% graduate from a 4-year college.

Across the U.S., youth raised in foster care typically achieve at lower levels academically and are at a higher risk of dropping out of school than their general population peers.

How You Can Help

The goal of the program is to help students become more efficient and effective both inside and outside the classroom. Academic Coaches will work with youth on organization, time management, study skills and social competencies. The program is integrated into the student’s existing schoolwork, along with traditional tutoring, supplemental enrichment and homework support.

How it Works

The program will take place in Residential Treatment Center's (RTC) located in the greater Houston area. Academic Coaches will work with youth, between the ages of 14-17, onsite during out of school hours.

Exact days and times will vary, depending on the facility. We will work with you on a schedule. Training and ongoing support will be provided. There will be a professional tutor onsite to provide additional support.

Background check required.

This position is similar to the tour guide position, except that your main focus will be on giving tours to school groups. This position is perfect for people who work with children often, especially in an educational setting. Children’s Educators do not need to know all the houses as there are specific ones included in our curriculum for different age groups. We mostly handle kids from kindergarten to eighth grade. Children’s educators are also asked to help with girl and boy scout badge workshops, which allow for more one on one time with children and more activity oriented learning.  Background check required.

If you are a pro at optimizing the use of your cell phone apps, have social media experience, and know traditional media, then we could use your talents here!

All our events are in Downtown Houston, and our museum has free parking.

These volunteers get to work hands-on with real historic artifacts. Their duties include organizing the archives, cataloguing artifacts that are not accessioned, and checking that previous artifact records are correct. This may also entail conducting your own research on specific items if information is missing. Background check required.

Volunteers are needed for a variety of special events, programs, and activities. This includes Scout Badge Workshops, culture and art festivals in Sam Houston Park and on Bagby Street, Juneteenth celebration, and Annual Candlelight Tours. Volunteer calls for special events happen over email about a month prior to the event. Because these opportunities happen less often, special event volunteers are only required to volunteer at four events a year to stay on the active roster.

Food Fairs are pop-up food distributions completely open to the public. These fairs prioritize fresh produce, serving an average of 150 to 220 households at each event. Volunteers play a vital role in the success of these events by setting up tents, repackaging bulk produce, and distributing the goods directly to clients. These events are particularly rewarding because volunteers can see the immediate impact of their efforts, making a tangible difference in the lives of those we serve.

These events occur from 8 am - 11 am at different sites throughout the Northeast Houston area:
