GCNA Meeting - Agenda Item (Website)

[sam savage]

Hi Andrea,
I sent a suggestion to Tyler few days back to request
that we add the following topic to our Agenda for
discussion at tonight's meeting. 

GCNA Membership to NPower AZ:

http://www.npoweraz.org/membership/index.htm

NPower is a local nonprofit that specializes in
training other nonprofits to work through technology
issues. They just had a course that would have been
perfect for GCNA called the Accidental WebMaster. It
might be worth our time & money to join. No offense to
our GCNA webmaster.  
Membership is $250 for the first year
and just $100 to renew each year following.

They would come do an assesment with GCNA of our needs
- Imporving the Web-site and they add 1 free training
session. I don't yet know what the fees would be like
after that, to continue improving our web-site to make
it usable as a site for communication, calendar of
events and even fundraising. I should hear more from
NPower before tonights meeting. 
Has the GCNA looked at doing something like this
before?
I'll see you at McAlpine's.
