Dear Volunteer,

In light of National Volunteer Week (April 19-25), the team at Grassroots.org would like to express to YOU (our wonderful design volunteers) know how much we appreciate the work you do for our nonprofit members!

So far in 2009, Grassroots.org volunteers have created 14 websites and 18 graphic design projects. Our members have benefited immensely from these projects and are so grateful for your skills and dedication. Please read on for feedback from our nonprofits...


What Grassroots.org nonprofits are saying

"The site is much more than we had ever hoped for! We have received many positive comments about our site - and still every time we log onto the site are impressed with it!" - Pat Harper, Animal Welfare Association of Warren County
(volunteer Wanda Thomas)

"Mocha Moms, Inc. - Lehigh Valley Chapter is thankful to our volunteer and the grassroots organization for giving us a website that we are very proud of. Without Ian and grassroots, I am not sure that our chapter would have such a fabulous site. Thank you just don't seem like it is enough...thank you, thank you, thank you" - Diane Mitchell (volunteer Ian Eldred)

"[The website] is beyond my expectations, it was like my volunteer knew what I liked even though I was unsure what I wanted. He explained in layman terms when I asked about something I did not understand and has been very helpful and patient" - Kathy Kwieran, Kathy's Kitties (volunteer Charles Martin)

"Our volunteer is the most professional person I have ever worked with. Whatever we asked, he was able to do, and he took the initiative to make beneficial suggestions that made our site much more than we anticipated" - Erek Walter, Ralph J. Bunche Repository (volunteer Jeff Tang)

"[Our website] shows a side of our organization that we want people to see and that's the service side. Aya did a wonderful job in developing the site according to our specifications which wasn't easy for her because of the different demands of our staff. Thank you so much for pairing us with this young lady" - Robert Kennedy, CASA ALI (volunteer Nakashima Aya)
