SARSAS IT Volunteer Needed!

 Contact Jack for further details at jlsanchez39@gmail.com

SARSAS is an all-volunteer 501 C 3 non-profit, public benefit corporation.  SARSAS is seeking a volunteer to set up a website and manage it.  The website is for salmon video/salmon pictures which will be available to the media and the public.   Here are the details for the Web Manager:
Scope of work:
Design stage would be pretty easy.  SARSAS doesn't need a high powered, highly dynamic site.  Just a basic site with good production values, that can handle new textual content on a monthly basis.
Implementation stage:   Site would need to be hosted on a place with good bandwidth and good storage capabilities.  We're hoping for a lot of traffic, as momentum builds.

Maintenance stage:   Post Monthly meeting agendas.  Occasional press releases.   Media from SARSAS Photographers such as Steve Hubbard and Phil Robertson to be posted in galleries. 

Funds:  SARSAS has limited funds available to pay for some hard costs, but on a very limited basis.  That's why we're looking for a pro bono solution from an interested professional.
