Helping Hands for Displaced Designers

Skip to comment formDesigner Matthew Richmond of the fantabulous Chopping Block is someone I regard highly not just because of his creative skill, but because he’s a designer who does beautiful Flash work and cares deeply about Web standards, too.
Matthew sent out an email to friends and colleagues about a site dedicated to helping designers displaced by Hurricane Katrina get back on their feet. While not related to standards per se, I felt it was a great thing to be doing for our community at large and wanted to let folks know about it.
The site matches any displaced creative designer with those who are willing to offer a desk, a place to sleep, a computer – anything to help folks get back to work and re-establish self-sufficience.
If you have resources to offer or are in need due to the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, please visit Displaced Designer for more information.
