Greensboro, N.C. – The 16th Annual Extreme Nonprofit Makeover has selected Gate City Legal Services as
the 2020 Makeover recipient. The project is supported by a grant from the foundations that support the
Guilford Nonprofit Consortium. Now in the program’s 16th year, the Makeover provides a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that serves people in Guilford County with a complete technology makeover– all for free to the nonprofit. The program helps a local
nonprofit do more community-focused work to help residents live better lives.
Gate City Legal Services was founded on the idea that every person deserves the right to an attorney. They strive to close the Justice Gap by providing quality legal services at reduced rates to those with low-to-modest income.
“Gate City Legal Services, Inc. is very grateful to be the recipient of the 2020 Extreme Nonprofit
Makeover. With this tremendous amount of support, GCLS will be able to better serve our targeted
demographic of individuals and families requiring legal services with low to modest income by
expanding the knowledge of our services as well as improving our efficiency capabilities for every case,”
said Sharon E. Dunmore, Esq., CEO.
Ten businesses team up with TechTriad to implement the Makeover: Solace IT Solutions (Chris Oakman,
CEO), Digital Phone (Nicky Smith, CEO), Magnetic Ideas (Jeff San George), Why People Click (Rob Ainbinder),
Computer Repair of Greensboro (Phillip Bishop), A Great Idea (Shane Lukas), Gefen Productions (Ellen Gefen),
Haystack CRM (Jennifer Davis), Sam Moore and Altina Layman (fundraising specialist).
They enable the Makeover with their generous donations of talented people and powerful solutions.
“I’ve not only built a successful business in Greensboro, I’ve raised my kids and planted my roots here,” said
Dr. Sue Polinsky, President of TechTriad. “The Makeover is our community give-back to help nonprofits that
do selfless work under trying technological conditions and help people who live in the place I call home.
Working with businesses who want to do something good for the people in Greensboro – is the best reward.”
