Do you represent a 501c3 Non-profit or know of one in need of a content 
managed website? Then check out this opportunity for a free Plone site. 
The deadline to apply is Friday:

As a part of the Plone Immersive Training Experience, 
http://immersive-training.net/, Six Feet Up (http://www.sixfeetup.com) 
invites non-profits to apply for a free enterprise-quality website.

On September 10th, 11th and 12th, 2009, the Plone Immersive Training 
Experience will take web application developers through the hands-on and 
guided exercise of creating and launching a real content-managed website 
for a non-profit organization to be selected from a pool of applicants.

"We encourage non-profit organizations that are in need of a brand new 
website to take advantage of this unique opportunity to get an 
enterprise-level website virtually for free", says Gabrielle 
Hendryx-Parker, Six Feet Up's CEO.

Non-profits may apply online before May 15th, 2009, by providing contact 
details and a short explanation on why they need a new website. Voting 
by the online community will then start and continue until June 5th. A 
winner will be announced on June 15th, 2009.

The chosen non-profit will just be asked to provide a final design, 
domain name, and copy for the site content. They will work with Six Feet 
Up to develop their requirements for a website. In return, the 
non-profit will work with top content management professionals to bring 
the site to life during the Plone Immersive Training Experience in 
September.

The non-profit website will be based on the Plone open source content 
management system and will include features such as an event calendar, a 
slideshow, a news section, embedded video files, a staff/people 
directory, and more.
