Hi all!

I'm Sura from Grassroots.org. At Grassroots.org, we have a very successful web design program where we match volunteer web designers with nonprofit organizations. Only, now, we offer upgraded hosting that finally supports Drupal. Grassroots.org runs on Drupal and we would love to get our clients on it too.

I would love to the opportunity to work with some of you! Many of our clients have never had a website before, have no paid employees and reserve all funds for their programs. You can look at clients who need a website by visiting http://grassroots.org/volunteer and clicking the "Volunteer Now!" link. Each client has different needs, outlined in the "Goals" section, but can also be contacted for additional questions. Grassroots.org is a resource to both parties for additional support, questions, or concerns.

Grassroots.org is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that provides free web and business development solutions to other nonprofit organizations. We provide everything from web hosting to Social Venture consulting. All of our services are free to our clients and there is no membership fee. To learn more about what we offer please visit www.grassroots.org/services

I would love to have some of you as part of our volunteer design team! Please check out http://grassroots.org/volunteer and see if there are any organizations that interest you.
