DEAR GRANDMOTHERS!

WE ARE SO THRILLED TO ANNOUNCE THE IMMINENT LAUNCH OF A SPECIAL WEBSITE JUST FOR GROUPS PARTICIPATING IN THE GRANDMOTHERS TO GRANDMOTHERS CAMPAIGN!!!

The website will have its own ?address? (www.grandmotherscampaign.org) and will go ?live? (be active) by Friday, July 20th.

THE WEBSITE IS A WORK IN PROGRESS, and we strongly encourage your feedback and welcome your suggestions!

We didn?t go for a flashy, gorgeous website ? we wanted something simple, accessible, easily navigated and useful to all of you!
TO THAT END, WE NEED TO HEAR YOUR FEEDBACK/SUGGESTIONS/IDEAS about how the website can be tailored to meet your needs!

We?re so excited to get this off the ground that we?re going to launch it and have it available to you BEFORE we?ve posted ALL the information that we have available! We want to make sure that it?s what you want and what you need? we?re working from many emails that you?ve sent to us ? and incorporated much of what we could ? but there?s room for more, and we welcome your input!!

NOW ? to be candid and up-front about all this, no website is going to do everything that everyone wants!

WHAT THE WEBSITE CAN CURRENTLY OFFER:
Each group (that is, the contact person you?ve given us) will be emailed a password to give you access to the website:

a) Individual profile pages for groups ? YOU CAN POST YOUR OWN GROUP PROFILE AND UPDATE IT WHENEVER YOU WANT!!!
b) You can POST AND MAINTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR EVENTS ? post photos, write-ups, updates; schedules, and learnings from your event
c) There?s a forum to share ideas about Regional and National initiatives
d) There?s a part of the website that is open to the public, and your password will give you access to the FULL PANOPLY OF WONDERFUL RESOURCES AVAILABLE! And the possibility of posting information. (i.e. the public can see the ?Event Calendar?, but the group contact information will be available only to ?members? ? groups affiliated with the Campaign who have a password!)
e) Granny Bulletins ? all past and future granny bulletins will be available on the site
f) Web polls ? this one might be fun! Someone can send us a question and we can post a ?poll? on relevant issues!

THERE WILL BE MORE, AS WE HEAR FROM YOU!

Warmly,
Ilana and Gillian
