Overview
Carly R. completed her Bronze Award in June 2003. She made a website for girls with A.D.D. to share their experiences and frustrations. She learned how to build a site, drew the logo, chose the colors and fonts, learned to make on-line forms and spread the word via e-mail lists her mother is on. She asked her mom to supplement the site with information for parents and girl scout leaders. Carly updates the site every time someone submits a contribution.
