Drupal and Community builder

Hello,
Anyone knows if Drupal can do this?
I need to create multi-organizations managed by an administrator in my site. Each organization will have news, publications and event calendar.
For example, my site have 20 organizations (organization 1, organization 2 etc.) One organization have one administrator that manage your own mini-site (with news, publications and events).
Can you help me?
NOTE: super admin is the person that have to create manually each organization.

Thank you in advance!

Check out Multi-site

Check out Multi-site installation and set-up as I think this will be what you need to use.

This is a good suggestion

This is a good suggestion based on the information given. But to take it further...

If you need separate sites, with separate login, and no content shared between the sites, use the 'multi-sites' feature as suggested. This simply means you only have one installation to worry about, making it easier to manage modules, themes and upgrades between all twenty sites. That's it; that's all it does. Don't think you can manage all the sites from one backend, or anything like that. About the only thing you *can* share between the sites is the user-base (ie. they only register at one site, and have one profile, but can login to all the sites using that user). In all other aspects, they are separate sites.

Along the same lines as the multi-site feature, you may want to try the 'virtual sites' module, but I doubt it would be a great choice for so many (ie. twenty) sites:
http://drupal.org/project/virtual_site

However, if you need one login, but users traverse 'separate sites' based on sub-domain, and you want authors to share *some* content between the 'sites', then you might want to try the 'domain access' module. This would also allow you to manage the sites from one backend.

Perhaps this can be handled

Perhaps this can be handled with Organic Groups?
