Outreach International Launches New Web Site
Outreach International, the international human development arm of the Community
of Christ, is pleased to announce the launch of an informative new web site. The
site will provide the organization expanded opportunities to share news and
information regarding its notable work among the world’s
poor.
Outreach International’s
new web site was developed by RealImpact, a division of RealNetwork,
specializing in web site design for nonprofit organizations from their offices
in Seattle, Washington. The web site includes a wide variation of features
including maps and descriptions of where Outreach International works throughout
the world, field program updates, reports and a library of numerous related
articles. Visitors will enjoy the many colorful photos and engaging stories of
people who have successfully emerged from lives of poverty as a result of
Outreach International’s
intervention. From the home page, the site features a streaming media section
that introduces and briefly defines the work of Outreach International.
In addition to news and information about the work of Outreach International
the web site also contains a gift planning resource. Suitable for anybody who is
seeking reliable and accurate information about estate planning and financial
planning, this section contains articles explaining the basic documents everyone
should own; an overview of vehicles used to make planned gifts; a Reading Room
with more than 100 articles and Gift Calculators. (Click on "How To
Help", then "Give Later")
Those who wish to contribute to the mission of the organization to assist the
poor will be able to do so online in a convenient and secure donor section.
