Every month, one nonprofit gets a five-page website. Free.
A program we have wanted to run for years, and it starts now. Each month we choose one nonprofit and build it a website of up to five pages, start to finish, at no cost. Every selection is documented on this page: who was chosen, and the before and after.
Five fields, one minute. Every nomination stays in the pool for the next selection.
How it works
Six steps, and most of them are ours.
Your team brings the story, the photos and one person to review the work. Planning, design, build and launch are on us.
1. Nominate
A name, a website if there is one, and two lines about the work. Nominations close on the last day of each month.
2. We choose one
One organization is selected on the first business day of the next month, and the nominator hears it from us first.
3. We listen
A first conversation about the mission, the people the site has to reach and what the current site is missing. It all goes into a written scope both sides work from.
4. We design
The structure and the design are built around the story that moves people to give. Two rounds of changes, with one contact person on your side.
5. We build
Mobile first, accessible and fast on phones. Your donation platform is connected and tested, and the old pages redirect so Google keeps finding you.
6. You take the keys
A recorded walkthrough and a short written guide, so your team updates the site without calling anyone. The domain, the site and the content are yours from day one.
The gift, in detail
Five pages, done properly.
Enough room to tell the story, show the work and move people to give. Here is exactly what the website includes, and what stays on your side.
Included
Not included
Nominate a nonprofit
Five fields, one minute.
Got it. Nominations close on the last day of the month and the selection is announced on the first business day of the next. If this organization is chosen, you will hear it from us first.
Nominating your own organization is welcome and most people do. One selection per month; every nomination stays in the pool for future months.
The selections
Every winner, documented.
One entry per month: the organization, the story, and the website before and after.
Whole Champion Foundation
A nonprofit educational platform advocating awareness, responsibility and action for a better world. Whole Champion Foundation is the September selection of the program and gets a new website of up to five pages. The full story, before and after, will be published here at launch.
Education Elevated
A Colorado nonprofit that has funded the school in Chyangba Village, Nepal, since 2007. Its trekking teams raise support for every vertical foot they climb, and that model was nowhere to be found on the old site. The rebuild puts it in the first screen, makes nineteen years of projects and photographs browsable, and leaves room for an emergency appeal when one is needed.
Read the full case study, or see it live at educationelevated.org.
Announced on November 2
Nominations for October close on the last day of the month, and the selection is announced on the first business day of November. Every nomination stays in the pool for the months that follow, and each website that gets built is documented here, before and after.
