Travis TAG non-profit web site goes live

Travis Vanguard and Academy Auction Web siteThe non-profit site www.TravisAuction.org went "live" this weekend in a soft opening.  The site is one of a number of pro-bono sites that TexasWebDevelopers donates over the course of the year.

Located in the heart of Uptown, Travis Vanguard and Academy is a Dallas Public School for academically talented and gifted students in 4th through 8th grades and serves the entire city of Dallas.  The students come from all economic and ethnic backgrounds and the academic program includes language arts, foreign languages, mathematics, humanities, sciences, technology, the arts and physical education.

Travis addresses the unique social and emotional needs of the gifted child. Students are assisted in understanding themselves in relationship to others in preparation in becoming responsible citizens in a global society.

Please consider making a tax-deductable donation to the William B. Travis PTA to help fund the projects and services the PTA provides for the students, including after school programs, that are not funded by DISD.

Any and all donations, no matter how small, are welcome and appreciated!
