Volunteering at ACC: Grant Writing Logistics

Today I went to a first ever volunteer “grant writers” meeting at ACC. So far, I’ve haven’t contributed much to the organization and now finally I will have a chance to put myself to good use. I’ve been in contact with ACC for almost two months now.

My assigned task is to research possible corporate donor organizations to which ACC can apply for grants in the fall.

Where I really want to contribute is in how ACC organizes it’s grant writing activities. I would like to set up a platform in which all the volunteers and staff can work together.

I’ve had very successful experience using a wiki for project management purposes, but the people I will be working with at ACC can not be assumed to be comfortable with the wiki language (have you ever edited Wikipedia?).

So I am looking for an easy to use, comprehensive (file uploads, calendar, etc), internet based, FREE project management software. Any ideas?

My first candidate for such a solution will be Basecamp.
