Non Profit Web Design

We build non-profit websites for charitable organizations, community groups, schools and other mission-driven organizations. A non-profit site has to do two jobs at once: explain the mission convincingly to someone who has never heard of you, and make it effortless for someone who already cares to give time or money.

Short paths to giving and volunteering

Those two paths are kept short and obvious rather than buried under organizational history. Donation and volunteer forms can be built to capture what you actually need, and route to the right coordinator instead of a shared inbox where things go quiet.

Run by volunteers, not developers

Non-profits rarely have technical staff and often have changing volunteers, so everything that changes is editable through the content management system by someone with no technical background. Events, news, annual reports and board listings can be kept current by whoever has time this week, which is the realistic test of whether a non-profit site stays alive.

Showing where the money goes

Donors give more readily to organizations that are visibly accountable, and the website is where that case gets made. Annual reports, impact figures and clear statements of how funds are used belong somewhere obvious rather than in a PDF nobody opens. All of it is editable by your own team, so last year's numbers do not sit on the site into the autumn.

Events are often the front door to an organization, since attending is a smaller commitment than giving or volunteering. Listing them clearly, with dates that are current and a way to register, converts interest into presence, and it is all editable by whoever is running the event rather than by us.

We have been building and hosting websites since 1999 and we work with a good number of non-profits, so we understand the constraints, including the budget ones. Contact us using the support button at the top of any page and tell us about the organization and what it needs to do online.
