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!)
Additional details

We would prefer that Squarespace be used and not Wordpress.

What we have in place
  • We currently have an existing web site with content and plenty of photographs., which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have social media presence on Facebook and LinkedIn, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,576 , allowing us to attract more potential funders and partners in our work. It will enable us to attract top notch volunteers, potential interns and new board members.

The success of our organization depends on attracting firms that believe in diversity and inclusion. Without your help, we cannot effectively identify firms that share our values and mission. Your skills will empower us to attract funding opportunities that will help our non profit.
