Our New Look
|
It's hard to believe that the Polk County Housing Trust Fund's eNewsletter is two years old. When we started staff worried about finding four or five items of affordable housing news each month. In fact, we have never been without stories from developers and providers and Board members and funders committed to making affordable housing a reality in Polk County. We have close to 100 articles archived on our website in the Recent News section. A recent addition of a search function to the website makes these articles searchable by word.
As a nod to our second anniversary we share our redesign for the eNewsletter. Thanks to our branding guru Trilix for freshening the look with easier to read story boxes and relocated pictures. The new design is maximized for reading on tablets and other mobile devices. Let us know what you think by responding to eburmeister@pchtf.org.
