New
Website
We
need your help. In November 2008, we were lucky
enough to participate in a wonderful program offered
by the Art Institute of Dallas. AID sponsored a
competition to design a new logo for our organization.
Students worked very hard and came up with several
excellent designs. Ultimately, the design of Adrianne
Riehn was selected as the winner.
Now
we would like to move forward with the design of
a new website. We have a very limited budget and
we would love for someone to volunteer to design
our new website for free. Please email Jason Edwards
at jpedwards@hemoinfo.org
if you would like to volunteer your web design services.

Change
of Plans
Due to a lack of In-Kind Donations, we are having
to reevaluate the online auction idea. We are now
considering a party with a donation request of $20
at the door. HIS will provide beverages (soft drinks,
beer and wine) as well as snacks. There will be
a live auction of the donated items that have been
received and we will be giving away Green Mountain
Coffee to those in attendance. Please let us know
what you think about this idea. We will also hold
our annual meeting just prior to the festivities.
Please
give us your feedback at jpedwards@hemoinfo.org.
