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

- Help with integrating our donation platform with our website
- Tips to make our website searchable/visible
- Skills and experience in creating a visually appealing website

What we have in place
  • We currently have a clear idea of what the website should look like/include, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a staff member ready to assist with the process, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $16,822 , allowing us to train a our staff to ensure that the organization can update content and manage the site post-launch.

This website will be able to showcase what our organization has achieved and how the struggle continues for the people of El Barrio and the issues they face. With text and visuals such as videos, we hope that those who view the site will reach out to us if they are affected or donate if they wish to stand in solidarity with our causes.
