Testimonials

Rhode Island Environmental Education Association

“With Great Island Design as our partner, completely redesigning our website was so much easier and enjoyable than I had expected! They asked the right questions, took all of our needs into account, and even provided evidence for why we should go in one direction or another. I really appreciated how organized yet flexible the process was, and how easy they made it to keep to our schedule. We couldn’t be happier with the new website and it’s a hit with our members, too!”

— Jeanine Silversmith, Executive Director

Woodstock Corporation

“Great Island Design has advised Woodstock over the last fifteen years, first as we redesigned our logo and then as we moved through three upgrades to our website. We’ve found Great Island offers a wonderful combination of technical expertise and creative, artistic expression. They listened to what we wanted to accomplish and then showed us how to do it. Great Island has helped us manage the complexity of moving to new forms of client engagement.”

— William Darling, President

Envisioning Access

“We were thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Great Island Design on our new website. They were much, much more than a design company. They were partners in looking at our organization from all angles as we re-imagined a new site. Helping Hands is undergoing a great transformation and Debra and Ken, and the Great Island team, helped us design a website that is not just good for the present but will take us into the future. Great Island Design understood our needs completely, had great insight into the complexities of working with board and staff and the delicacy of our transition. Finally, it was just enjoyable to work with a team as smart as Debra and Ken – they just got IT!”

— Diane S. Nahabedian, Executive Director

Footprint Power

“With Great Island Design, we received prompt, cost-effective service and a high-quality product — all of which are critical in an economic environment that asks us to do more with less. What we did not expect, however, was how Great Island Design made our excitement about our project their own — and brought with them the capacity to channel that excitement into a website that informs, entertains and engages the audience of potential stakeholders. We could not have been more pleased with the process or with the results.”

— Peter Furniss, CEO

TNTP, Inc.

“It has been a pleasure to partner with the Great Island Design team, led by Debra Glabeau. The work to support the InSPIRED Initiative with growth through social media platforms has exceeded our expectations. Not only does Debra produce high quality work, but she also demonstrates her investment in truly supporting our team to meet our goals. During this partnership, we have aimed to expand the presence of InSPIRED to support more BIPOC educators across the state of Massachusetts, and Debra has been a valuable advisor and executor on best practices for content design and audience reach. I am appreciative of Great Island’s support.”

— Crystal Hall, Director
