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 website, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have new copy and photos, comparable sites, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $6,772 , allowing us to invest in the development of AEC entrepreneurs.

African Entrepreneur Collective (AEC) relies on our website to tell the story of our work to current and potential donors. The current website is outdated and the current CMS-platform (Squarespace) is clunky and difficult to customize. This new website will allow us to present a compelling message to our audience, enable people to donate with ease, and inspire action from viewers. AEC's staff can easily make updates to a built-out website but we need an expert to help us redevelop the website's foundation.

Testimonials

Read the Impact Story
Silvia and the MundusWorks team did an excellent job on AEC's new website. I was pleased with the technical skills and project management. Silvia and Satchit were able to quickly understand the aims and key pieces of the website, and turn it into a beautiful reality. They were receptive to feedback and willing to put in the time it takes to finalize a clean, modern site. Thank you Mundus Works team!

Working with Jamie and AEC team has been a great experience. They had a clear idea of the design and targets of the new website. All the content was ready and available for us to develop the site and they provided immediate and clear feedback to our work, making things easy and helping us with fulfilling the deadlines. Besides, Jamie is a very nice person to work with! We definitely recommend working with the African Entrepreneur Collective!
