After designing the site, Websiteforall principal Stephen James handed the HTML/CSS/Javascript files to Engaging.net and we converted them into ExpressionEngine templates and built the ExpressionEngine deployment to support them.
The work went quickly and the B2D1 folks were pleased with the results.
Update: The site is beginning to gain attention, with a mention in Marie Claire, “L’e-mail solidaire : un nouveau moyen d’aider !”.
