Think of the Resource Saver as the engine that powers your Web site and online community.  It's a Web-based system especially well suited to bring existing organizations onto the Internet.  Once there, these groups enjoy dramatic increases in communication, effectiveness and outreach.  

Some benefits offered by using the Resource Saver:

Domain expertise:  Since 1994, the Global Environment & Technology Foundation (GETF) has been creating online environmental communities.  Some of these communities include GreenBiz.com, SustainableUSA.org, EarthVision.net, and CoolCompanies.org.  These communities are built on GETF's flexible and proprietary Resource SaverTM system and receive nearly 30 million hits per year.

Increased outreach:  News published on your site through the Resource Saver can be "pushed" into the EarthVision news service - ultimately redistributing an organization's content to new outlets and GETF's online partners.  GETF's EarthVision provides news content to a number of online partners including Yahoo!, Outside Online, Hooked on the Outdoors, and other Web sites that make up GETF Networks.

Increased Value:  The Resource Saver is an online application that is used, shared and supported by many GETF partners to build and manage their Web sites.  As a result, partners benefit from great economies of scale – gaining access to new features, upgrades, and new content as they're developed.  All of this without having to solely support the expenses associated with maintaining a custom application and developing daily online content.  

In addition, as a non-profit, GETF can offer Web site services at a more competitive price than private vendors.  GETF also brings years of experience in the environmental field, daily environmental content, and strategies that will encourage people to return to your site.
