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 need a redesign of our current website to make it look better and work better. We need events posting, events registration, online payments, links to social media, newsletter archive, contacts, and other features to communicate with our members and with the general public.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a functioning website and domain name, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a volunteer overseeing the project, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $16,822 , allowing us to keep our event registration fees and membership dues low so that our services can benefit more people.

We are a small organization with a very small budget, no office and no staff. Our volunteers are not tech professionals. We rely on our website as our public presence and virtual office.
