verde joins the 20th century

so, as we like to say around here, poco a poco - little by little we grow something from nothing, and so it is today as we take an important step, shooting our organization straightforward to the late 1990s: the launch of our website.

nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something, and our website would not be possible without the time and effort of 3 very important partners:

thanks to Bridget Gregory/The Frause Group, a Seattle- and Portland-based marketing firm which provided probono consulting services, for helping us reduce our big-to-us story to a manageable size, and helping us find a web designer.

thanks to Isaac Phillips, a web designer who took our words, pictures and ideas, transforming them into a good-lookin' and easy-to-use site we could call our own, and doing so for a graciously provided discounted fee.

and, thanks to Technical Assistance for Community Services, a Portland-area nonprofit corporation. TACS has served the nonprofit community in Oregon for over 25 years, providing training, consultation, information, and resources that nonprofits need to do their work better. Verde received a mini-grant from TACS's Small Organization Support program, in part to design and implement Verde's website.

and, thanks to you, of course of course, for checking us out, we hope you like our story
