[HOT] Thank you Website Working Group and why I am so excited about the new hotosm.org

[Rebecca Firth]

Hi,

Very excited about the new site too! As Tyler mentioned in #3, there's lots
of detail on community projects (e.g. all the Microgrants and Device Grants
- click on the countries here
https://www.hotosm.org/projects/microgrants_and_community_development). If
anyone wants to set up a new community project page, feel free to get in
touch, happy to help create it.

Thanks,

Rebecca
