advice site launches "The Archers" for the voluntary sector The KnowHow NonProfit website (www.knowhownonprofit.org) provides advice and enables people to share knowledge on every aspect of running a non-profit organisation. Millcaster Tales, a fictional blog that tells the story of a small town's non-profit organisations and the people who work there, launched on the KnowHow NonProfit website in February 2009 and has attracted a loyal following. Now, KnowHow NonProfit is hoping to reach a new audience by producing an animated video version of the Millcaster Tales blog, which has been recorded using professional actors and features illustrations of the characters. The animated video will be available on the KnowHow NonProfit and Society Guardian website in streaming audio and video, or as an MP3 download, on Wednesday. Each episode of Millcaster Tales is based on real-life situations faced by voluntary organisations and is brought to life through the screenwriting skills of Steve Trafford, who regularly writes for ITV series The Bill. "We're very excited to be launching the Millcaster Tales video. We feel that hearing the voices of the actors really brings the story alive. Over time, we hope the Millcaster Tales recordings will become known as The Archers for the voluntary sector," said Sahara Quli, CEO of KnowHow NonProfit.
