We believe in giving back to the community we live in, and love. One of the local organizations we have done extensive work for is Have House NC.
Providing Comprehensive Services to the Youth and Families of Wake County since 1973.
Haven House Services is a private, non-profit agency that serves the needs of young people in difficult situations - from homelessness to running away to family, school or life problems.
Founded in 1973, we are governed by a volunteer board of directors comprised of local citizens dedicated to helping youth and their families.
Using a multi-faceted approach, our agency uniquely provides a wide-range of interrelated programs that address the many challenges faced by today's young people and their families.
Current Project for Haven House:
We are currently developing a full Content Management Driven website for havenhousenc.org There current site is outdated, and lacking in functionality. This site features a full CMS plus Advertising and Mailing List Manager and Email campaign application integrated. The new site can see being developed here: http://haven.rtpdesigns.com
RTP Designs LLC, being a Raleigh North Carolina based company feels it is important
to give local charities as much as exposure as possible. We created this page so we can include charities that may not be as well known as other charities.
An example is kidscards.org which uses premature baby’s feet imprints to use as the basis of card designs. What a novel and wonderful way to support UNC Children Hospital programs.
