IT'S not easy building a website for a charitable organisation, especially when time and money are short.
The web is the perfect vehicle for low-cost communication and, more crucially for charities, spreading the word at low-cost.
If you can create a good message to spread your gospel, it can do wonders for your charity's membership.
One such successful UK site is that of the Vegetarian Society (http://www.vegsoc.org), launched in 1994 and consistently maintained and updated ever since.
Browsing through the site, you can see all the care and attention that has gone into building it.
With smart use of colours and illustration, the society has created a site which ranks as one of the best in its subject on the internet.
