Commitment to Our Community

I.T. by Design is involved heavily in its community. Groups and organizations I.T. by Design is affiliated with include Baton Rouge Area Chamber (BRAC), Forum 35, Sales and Marketing Executives of Greater Baton Rouge, Louisiana State University (LSU) and Louisiana Technology Park.

We are involved with BRAC at an investor level committing $37,500 to the organization over 5 years. Michael Thrower, President of I.T. by Design serves on the Executive Committee of the Technology, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship Council for BRAC as well.

Education is also highly valued by I.T. by Design, and we strive to get involved on both sides of the classroom. Between three of our team members (two of which are at the executive level), we teach almost every software development class at the LSU Division of Continuing Education. We provide a Resource Center on our website as well as a Facebook Fan Page where those interested can visit to learn and read up on recent technology trends and news topics. We also volunteer as counselors at the Louisiana Technology Park and happen to be students of business development classes taught at the Technology Park to explore developing new divisions of our organization.

Our involvement extends to donations to local non-profits as well. I.T. by Design offers pro-bono services to selected non-profit organizations. We have donated our time and services to create and redesign websites including content management systems for both St. John’s United Methodist Church in Baton Rouge as well as From the Flames.

If you would like to nominate a non-profit organization in need of our pro-bono services, please fill out the form below. If selected, an I.T. by Design representative will contact you shortly.
