Ecopixel, LLC Launches New Web Site for Himalayan Cataract Project

Essex Junction, VT, February 06, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Ecopixel, LLC of Essex Junction, Vermont, a Web development and online visibility firm, has recently launched a new Web site for the Vermont-based Himalayan Cataract Project (HCP). The contact management system Web site at www.cureblindness.org reflects HCP’s expanding role in eye care delivery and infrastructure creation in some of the hardest-to-reach areas of the Himalaya and Africa.

The content management system (CMS) allows HCP staff to edit the Web site themselves. The site also features a news system, an RSS feed, and the ability to collect online donations, which have increased since the new site was put into place, according to HCP Chief Operating Officer Emily Newick. “With the announcement of our new site in mid-December, the HCP saw online donations for the last two weeks of the year increase by nearly 70 percent over the same time period in 2007,” Newick said. HCP is based in Waterbury, Vt.

Ecopixel principal Paul Hansen said Vermont businesses and nonprofit organizations are embracing content management systems. “They like the idea that once the site is designed and built, we can train them to maintain their Web presence on their own schedule, from any location that has an Internet connection. This keeps their Web sites fresh and inviting for online visitors.”
