“We were honored to by selected by the A.J. Fletcher Foundation to design the NC Policy Watch website” said David Minton, Managing Partner for DesignHammer. “They are a non-profit that does important work in North Carolina and we were happy we could enhance their web presence, and facilitate getting their message out.” Minton added.

“DesignHammer has empowered us — providing us the tools to get our message out to the people who need to hear it.” Stated Chris Fitzsimon, Director, North Carolina Policy Watch.

DesignHammer completed the initial NC Policy Watch web site, replacing the web presence afforded through a section of the Philanthropy Journal site. The new site features greatly expanded content, and a simple design and near monochromatic palette, intended to allow readers to focus on the news and commentaries featured on the site.
