There are many ways to make a contribution to the world around us.
I decided to give graphic design away. Some people give their time caring for others, teaching for free, distributing food or looking after the elderly.
I can do desktop publishing (designing brochures for print), and I like doing it, so I give it to those in need. Although in today's web based world paper seems old-fashioned, the skills required have not changed, have not become easier to learn and paper is still a very important way to communicate, maybe because it is a part of the real world.
Charities, Not-for-profit, Associations caritatives et à but non lucratif (this is for my goggled friend).
The purpose is to get my skills to grow, do something which will be valued because it is usually fairly expensive, and not try to sell it because it would be like doing dumping on those who make a living out of it. Hence hosting on a blog. Won't make money, should not cost me money either. Just time.
This blog will contain messages in several languages - but I'll repeat myself a bit, it's just for the Search Engines.
Charities and Not-for-profit can benefit from DTP skills. It is my way to believe anyone can make a difference for a better world.
Free Desktop Publishing for Not for Profit
You are a Not for Profit organisation or a Charity and you need some professional work done, such as create a new logo, refurbish an existing logo, create a brochure, something that will be downloaded from your site, or sent to a professional printer (I only handle minor webdesign work).
This is expensive and the work of professional designers, which you may not have the funds to pay.
