Website Construction (CMS-Based)

Project details

What we need
  • Development of a new website using a Content Management System (CMS)
  • Training to ensure Organization's staff members can update content and manage the site post-launch
  • Note: This project is for a website built with a Content Management System (CMS), such as Wordpress, Squarespace, Joomla, Drupal, or Weebly . A CMS-based website can be maintained and updated easily (no coding required!)
What we have in place
  • We currently have an existing temporary website and a NationBuilder account, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have our brand identity/logos, photos, copy, and an outline of content, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $16,822 , allowing us to build the leadership of 800 women to work towards a day without violence and exploitation.

We need you to help us end gender violence and exploitation. We need a website that can help communicate the movement and vibrant community that we have and inspire people to join us! We need design that inspires, connects to people, and shares critical info. I hope you can join us by being our web design hero! Our audiences are our membership of survivors of violence/exploitation, volunteers, allies, media, funders, advocates and policymakers. Look forward to collaborating with you!
