As with any emerging technology, many different groups are certain to use it in any way they can. One of the best ways, however, that any technology can be used, is to better the lives of others for little to no cost. One such organization is 48 in 48, which utilizes the digital medium to create websites for other nonprofit organizations to help them gain traction and reach the people they need to help to the best of their ability.
They offer free services to nonprofit organizations in creating websites, as well as provide free marketing services such as logo creation and others. Their initial purpose of providing 48 websites to 48 nonprofits in 48 hours has since grown and expanded to a much broader reaching service worldwide, taking part in community events and providing experience for volunteers by allowing them to register to create websites.
While 48 in 48’s main mission is to create websites for nonprofits in a 48 hour period, they also allow corporate sponsors to help further support their charity work and better help give back to their community of skilled nonprofits that just need a little push to get their show truly on the road.
Update:
For the updated website I chose to try and make the blog page slightly more personalized, which included changing the page background to a slightly different color and also figuring out how to change the font of the text. I also experimented with connecting the blog post to a larger main website, which features a header with hyperlinks that allow the blog post to be accessed.
