The Samaritan Inn, Inc.
http://www.thesamaritaninn.org/
Mission
We are a comprehensive homeless program that helps willing people gain dignity and
independence.
Web Project
Add slideshow to existing website. (This might be a Silverlight project.)
Proposal
We currently have a website but are limited as to what we can add to it. Mostly
because we do not have the programs available for us to use, i.e. Flash, etc. We
regularly have to obtain a quote from our web host to determine if it would be cost
effective to make certain changes to our website. A change that we would like make
on a regular basis is to add picture slide shows or very short videos. We often
add pictures with a short paragraph regarding donations or a special event and we
would like to include more that just a snapshot. We have created PowerPoint slideshows
but they cannot be added to our website. Our web host is very inexpensive as a host
and we really don’t want to change, but if we could do more ourselves, we would
be able to save money that can be used somewhere else.
Since we are a not for profit organization, our funds are very limited; we do not
have a ‘technical expert’ on staff. We sub-contract with an IT company to come in
every now and then, otherwise the Development Manager or the Administrative Assistant
handle all the IT issues. Only when a problem is beyond our knowledge do we call
the IT company. This means that the program which is created for us would have to
be easy to use….for ‘dummies’.
We would like this program to also be used to create DVDs to take to groups for
presentations and for community awareness programs.
Thank you for your consideration.
