Description:

"Globaly" -> "Globally" in Landing.js.

Minor rewording and grammar changes in about.md. Some of these changes are definitely subjective so I'm very open to reverting or going with something else.

I might have missed a few things (or introduced them with my changes), so a general once-over of the text is probably worth doing before approving.

Closes #11 .

not your doing but could you also fix "endeavorments"? not a word


1. To support local communities in social and civic endeavorments
2. To empower students with the technological skills to be impactful

### Our Process

JumboCode projects run throughout the academic school year. In the summer, we work with non-profits to gauge their needs, and workshop potential technological solutions. Well fitting projects are assigned a project lead, who then begins working more closely with their client to plan out their project. Near the end of the summer, project leads begin developing architecture bases for their code bases.

Also not your doing, but "well-fitting projects" feels weird for me

Thank you so much for taking lead on this... I'm going to try to do a bigger overhaul sometime soon, but this makes a huge difference

Just a couple of things that might be nice to change while you're making changes!

JumboCode projects run throughout the academic school year (September - May). In the summer, we talk with non-profit organizations, gauge their needs, and brainstorm potential technological solutions. Near the end of the summer, selected projects are assigned a project lead, who begins working closely with the non-profit to plan out the project. Shortly after that, the project leads begin developing architecture bases for their code bases.


Teams of ~10 students, from a variety of development, design, and management backgrounds, are formed in September. These teams work closely with their clients to develop, deploy, test, and iterate on their projects during the next 9 months.
