I appreciate it! You're right, the "free" mindset is not good. I just wanted to highlight some ways that nonprofits can save a penny, here and there. Nonprofits SHOULD hire consultants and SHOULD pay them every penny they are worth to do the job. Thanks for reminding me about Craigslist, and I did not know about NOZA, I am going to have to check that out! Thanks for a such a wonderful comment, Mazarine Thank you so much for your comment Pamela! I appreciate it!

Thanks for reminding me about Craigslist, and I did not know about NOZA, I am going to have to check that out!

May I add that craigslist is an awesome resource. I've seen a group outfit an entire after-school drop in center with donated furnishings (and even a complete donated set of SAT study books) and I've located numerous graphic designers for both client work (design of a WP site) and business (logos, package design, etc.). And, for those days when you CAN'T make it to a library to use the Foundation Center database (I recommend weekly foundation prospect research), NOZA Search makes an ideal free substitute.
