Project Menu Changes
Over the past few months, we've spoken to lots of our professionals and we've listened to your feedback. Now, we've made it even more manageable to give what you're good at!
- Designers - we now require that organizations give you credit in all design projects.
- HR Professionals - Our Board Member Search Strategy project no longer involves recruitment or implementation.
- Grant Writers - The organization now has to select and prepare the RFP for their grant.
We have a lot more exciting changes coming soon - so stay tuned! Want to give your skills pro bono? You can start by checking out Catchafire's open projects. |
