Subject:Need Help to Help a Non-Profit From:"Stephen C. Gillespie Sr" <steve -dot- gillespie -at- fedex -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Wed, 18 Oct 2006 13:59:27 -0500
Greetings,
My team is trying to help a non-profit org, The Clovernook Center, which is
a non-profit 501(3c) company, with a documentation project. FYI, Clovernook
trains and employs blind and visually-impaired people. In Memphis, they
manufacture green paper products (disposable cups and file folders).
What they need help with is, *some kind* of manual to document compliance
with Federal Standard 368. I Googled for that, and came up with a variety of
stuff - my guess is that it pertains to standards for recyclable product
claims and advertising.
The Clovernook VP I spoke with was not clear on the requirements (she has a
non-profit admin background) but says that a GAO auditor already came by,
and will be returning soon .
Is anybody familiar with those standards, and can you advise as to what kind
of documentation is required?
BTW, we will be doing this pro bono.
Appreciate any help!
