Purple Dog is proud to announce a new project to support Essential Community Organisations and Charities by providing free websites (or reduced cost website) design, skills, training and time to assist you in developing your online presence.
Do you work in, or know someone that works in an Essential Community Organisation or a charity? If so, read on to find out about getting a free website (or reduced cost website) from Purple Dog Design.
Most of us work rest and play within a community, whether large or small. Within our communities are a large number of organisations and charities providing every service imaginable. Many of these are on the smaller side and offer support services on a not-for-profit basis. We like to call these “Essential Community Organisations” or ECOs – they are often funded entirely by local grants or donations.
These ECOs and charities provide targeted support services for a wide range of subjects; from animal welfare, to anti-domestic violence, child support, helping homeless persons, low income families… and the list goes on.
Purple Dog, in the spirit of wanting to give back and support the community, and in recognition of the outstanding service these groups provide, has launched a project where Essential Community Organisations can receive free websites (or reduced cost website), training and consultation time. Charities and other not for profits organisations can also apply.
