POP Ottawa is a coalition of environmental activists seeking to push its municipal government toward planning a more environmentally sustainable and climate change-avoiding city.
It has its work cut out for it.
It really needed a website that matched the expectations of the people it sought to influence and a site put together by well-intentioned volunteers with a bent for figuring out web applications and a free Weebly account wasn’t going to cut it.
But the group didn’t have a lot of resources to put into a grand redesign. What it did have was a keen staff person and a website builder who’s keen to collaborate with clients, let them behind the curtain and build them a high-production-value site that they can maintain themselves.
With the right tools, a supportive trainer and a small retainer it can be done.
