Spreading The Project
Posted on 29. Oct, 2008 by Rob in Life
Some of you have been following the progress of the free design project these past few weeks. For those who haven’t please let me explain what it is.
CoffeeDaze Design was founded as a way to provide graphic design, tech support, web integration and advertising for free to individuals, churches, schools and other organizations. The project quickly grew into the local community (Salem, Oregon) and has been a bigger success than ever imagined. Design services are often an expensive option for companies and groups. With our economy in uncertain times it is a cost many can not afford or even consider. By being able to provide design services to these local groups it can help them advertise and voice their needs to the public in a time when funding and outreach are needed most. Eventually I would like to see this project grow into a larger entity by involving other designers, tech support specialists and advertisers so we may offer even more to groups. I am dedicated to making this project continue and grow.
I am able to provide these services for free thanks to donations. There is little upkeep costs since I am able to dedicate my work freely to the project full-time. I am asking bloggers to help spread the word about the free design project so we can do greater things. Generous donations have already come in the form of technology, software and support! I still have the need for a mobile computer so I can work on location with groups and run the donated new software. The goal for fundraising is $2000 to cover the cost of computer, travel and software.
If you would like to help this project please donate via the website at http://designoffering.com
All donations will be used to launch and maintain the design project. If we can raise beyond our goal the remaining money will go towards hosting costs for clients.
Thank you to all who have supported the design project so far and with a little more help we can make this an amazing opportunity for so many!
Thank you,
Robert Losch

Very cool concept Rob, I wish you the best, and I may even be available to help on a part-time basis.
It’s always good to give back to the community, isn’t it?
Yes we can! Or something . . .

What a great idea, Rob! As one who has worked with you in the past I can vouch for your talents and ability to make things happen. We are very proud of the website you made for us and it has been a real blessing to our church and school. I’m anxious to hear more about this great project!
