Save Barnegat Bay's contributions to New Jersey and the ecosystem of the Jersey Shore cannot be applauded enough.  It's with our honor that we've been able to work with this non-profit organization for nearly a decade. Through the design of several iterations of a website, our team has helped to train the Save Barnegat Bay staff on marketing principals, leveraging social media marketing, and implementing search engine optimization to get their incredible research in front of the eyes of beach-goers around the state. S-FX has also helped set up the network infrastructure for four different office locations for the organization and continues to advise on all aspects of integrating technology regularly. About the Client - Save Barnegat Bay was founded by Charles Hedlund in 1971 as the Ocean County Chapter of the Izaak Walton League of America in response to a proposed development in what are today Traders Cove and F-Cove in Brick Township. In 1985 the organization became reinvigorated, expanded its scope to the whole watershed, and adopted the name Save Barnegat Bay. From the 1980’s until well into the first decade of the twenty-first century, the group’s primary focus was on resisting imprudent development and promoting conservation of open space in its natural state. In recent years, as the watershed has become largely built out, Save Barnegat Bay has been responding to the vast number of factors that threaten the health of Barnegat Bay and its ecosystem.
