Doing what you can do
Another lesson on offering versus declining help: I offered to help to build a small website for a small Indian relief organisation. I already have a few ideas, now I'm trying to do something with them. And again I learn that I am not a designer. The reason why I am doing this is because there is no big (or rather just no) budget. Still, I'm asking myself: In such a case, should I be do what I can do – because something is better than nothing? Or should I do what I can and know how to do?
In this case, I'll probably aim for a compromise: I will create a basic design (whatever it will look like) and propose to ask a few designer friends whether they would be game to do some pro bono work.
Because even small relief organisations deserve high-quality design.
