Open RFP: North End Neighborhood Association

The North End Neighborhood Association in Boise is soliciting responses for the NENA Branding RFP.

From the RFP description:

The primary use of many of these materials will be to educate prospective and current residents about our role in the community and provide easy access to pertinent information.  Therefore, they will be informational in nature and usable over a large demographic.  

The printed materials will be used in local, North End businesses as well as community-wide events in which NENA participates.  (i.e. – Hyde Park Street Fair, Idaho Green Expo, etc.)

More details, including budget, response requirements and such are available on the NENA site.

Responses to this RFP are due by Monday, August 24th.
