Project details

What we need
  • Creation of an E-Newsletter from scratch, or an overhaul of an existing one
  • Training on how to input content into a template
Additional details

Currently we plug in content to an old newsletter template in Dreamweaver and send the newsletter through our donor database, Andar.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a marketing manager that leads all newletter distributions, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have an existing template for all programs but would like a new look with different versions, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to provide 1500 books to children in Lucas County.

Our eNewsletters go out to thousands of United Way and community supporters and we want our template to be attractive and inspire people to make change in the community. We need a fresh look that attracts individuals to open them.
