Citizens Market is an exciting new nonprofit organization in Boston that recently won $70,000 in seed funding from Echoing Green. Our mission is to empower consumers with tools to shop responsibly. We are developing a crowdsourced website where information about corporate behavior is organized into scores that consumers can see while they shop. You can learn more about Citizens Market by visiting our prototype and YouTube videos at www.citizensmarket.org. Consumers can make an enormous difference – with the right tools. Join us in our mission to empower them!

Our Ruby on Rails application is not yet in production, and achieving basic functionality for our beta launch is our current objective. We have completed our wireframes / comps and much of the back-end code. We need help developing the view layer code and finishing the back-end code.
