I've taken some <a title="Sagamore Hills PTA Google account setup - Parents" href="http://www.9.0ne.org/w/Sagamore_Hills_PTA_Google_account_setup">notes of the process</a> and <a title="Sagamore Hills PTA Google account - Parents" href="http://www.9.0ne.org/w/Sagamore_Hills_PTA_Google_account">where we're at now</a>, which is basically to just be registered and ready, but not yet utilizing in any way.

Have transitioned many clients to Google Apps and they like it a lot. Also helped a nonprofit client get 3K a month in free adwords. I'd like to do that as well to highlight the school's events when people search, as well as provide a little promotion. -J On Jun 18, 2013, at 12:00 PM, Dave Allen Barker Jr wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">I still think it would be neat if the PTA had a free Google Apps for Nonprofits account (intro, howto). It would allow: • Flexibility and branding of email addresses (various @sagamorehillspta.org (or other domain) email addresses) • More control over calendaring (wouldn't it be great for parents to subscribe to a PTA shared public calendar?) • A place to collaborate (neat old 3 minute video explanation) • Other possibilities (John's mentioned free Google ads) We don't need to decide to use it right now, but I think having the possibility ready is only good. Official PTA voices, what do you think? John, I think you mentioned that you could get that ball rolling if the PTA would like? </pre> </blockquote> </blockquote> </body> </html>
