Project Overview
We seek a web designer to create structure and design options for our nonprofit website using WordPress. The volunteer should assess and incorporate our goals and needs and consider our key audiences. The designer should also assess our technical capabilities. The project's deliverable is a draft of architecture and design concepts that we can easily share with a web developer volunteer or a member of our team who will use the guide to create our new site.
Our work will take place over multiple meetings in six to nine weeks. In our first meeting, the volunteer should interview us about our desired features, our web capabilities, and our technical expertise. Then, they'll synthesize the information into a requirements briefing. We'll engage in various check-ins, where a member or members of our team will provide feedback. The volunteer will audit our current site to create a draft of site architecture and design options including wireframes, site structure, and other visual elements.
Are you a talented web designer passionate about using your skills for a greater good? We're a dedicated nonprofit organization seeking a creative volunteer to help us build the digital foundation for our mission-driven work. Our website is the heart of our online presence—a place where we connect with supporters, inspire action, and share the impact of our work. But to truly make a difference, we need a site that’s as dynamic and engaging as the communities we serve.
As our volunteer web designer, you'll play a crucial role in transforming our vision into reality. This project is more than just a website; it’s a platform that will amplify our message, attract donors, recruit volunteers, and showcase our successes. We’re looking for someone who can bring fresh ideas, design a user-friendly structure, and create a visually compelling experience that resonates with our diverse audience.
In return for your time and expertise, you’ll gain the satisfaction of contributing to a cause that matters. You'll have the opportunity to lead a high-impact project, collaborate with a passionate team, and add a meaningful project to your portfolio. Whether you're looking to give back, expand your skills, or make connections in the nonprofit sector, this is a chance to make a lasting difference.
Join us in building a digital space that reflects our commitment to change. Your work will empower us to reach more people, drive more action, and create a brighter future for those we serve. If you're ready to use your design skills for good, we’d love to hear from you!
We have laid a strong foundation to ensure that our web design project is both effective and efficient. Our current website is live and functional, providing a solid starting point for your creative expertise. We've carefully gathered and organized the content that showcases the core of our nonprofit, Great Opportunities, focusing on our educational initiatives and the impact they have on our community.
As part of your volunteer role, we invite you to review this existing content in detail. We've identified key areas where we believe your design and structural recommendations could significantly enhance how we communicate our educational mission. Your fresh perspective will be invaluable in identifying improvements that can make our message more compelling, accessible, and engaging for our diverse audience.
We are fully prepared to support you throughout this process, providing you with any additional information, resources, or clarification you might need. Your insights will not only help refine the current content but also guide the implementation of these changes to ensure they align seamlessly with our goals.We have already thought about and are prepared to brief you about our current website platform, budget restrictions for the build, our branding collaterals and norms, and information about our stakeholder groups and target audiences. We've also compiled some photos and have some language developed that we will share with you and samples of sites we like.
