Website Technical Updates

Project details

What we need
  • Updates and/or fixes to Organization’s existing website (e.g., bug fixes, plugin or widget integration, etc.)
  • Training for up to 3 Organization staff members on how to resolve minor issues going forward (if applicable)
Language proficiency requirements

English and English proficiency is required. You will not be able to apply if you do not meet this requirement. Learn more about language proficiency requirements.

Additional details

Our Wordpress site needs updated plugins and bugs fixed, widget integration.

What we have in place
  • We currently have A Wordpress website, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have an IT person on our team who has great knowledge of issues, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,757 , allowing us to raise more needed funds for our Modern Widows Club.

We are behind on plugin updates and unsure if it will break any links if we proceed. We need a button for our DONATE button to be more prominent and as people can't seen to find it easily. Ouch.
