Dot.Org Awards

Excellence in Nonprofit Web sites

The way nonprofits communicate with their constituents is constantly evolving. From emailed news alerts to MySpace pages, from online donations to blogs, from interactive maps to shared content-creation through Wikis, connections between nonprofits and communites are rapidly changing.

To highlight excellence online, the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits will recognize some of the best Minnesota-based nonprofit Web sites during our first annual Dot.Org Awards, to be presented at this year’s Technology and Communications Conference on April 24, 2007.

Winners will be selected by a reviewing and will be based on the following principles that nonprofit Web sites are:

• information-generous,
• interactive and participatory,
• illustrating the organization’s mission,
• consistent with the organization’s brand,
• innovative yet functional,
• accessible, and
• encouraging of connections and networks.

MCN is currently seeking nominations for the Dot.Org Awards from now until Friday, March 2, 2007. Nominations will be accepted from nonprofit staff, volunteers, clients, consultants and the general public.
