New subscriber here, on the journey of creating our non-profit website! Thank you.
Welcome to the channel!
@@AmberMelanieSmith thanks so much!!
Might make the website myself. Already designed one small one and I have a few years to learn more.
It's such a helpful skill to have!
I have a nonprofit that I founded in 2000 overseas and in the US in 2014 but haven't been able to raise any funds for projects...just looking for a free resources to equip myself better. I feel I am good at actually doing the work but not so good at advertising and raising funds for ministry. I wonder if there are some trainings. our nonprofit can't hire folks to do those jobs so...just wondering
It's hard for sure! I have trainings for fundraising strategy on my website (FounderToFullTime.com) and there are many great resources out there.
Hi, thank you for the information I got today. I like to know for a non profit organization that have a very small budget like us, which of the platform will you advise us to make use of in building our website?
Depends on your skill and comfort level! I am personally a fan of Wordpress.
Thank you
How much does it usually cost to have a basic website setup? And any suggestions on someone that can do it?
It can vary a lot! If you can build it yourself you can save a bit, and just pay for hosting / domain. If you are hiring someone to design it for you, could be anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand!
Hi I want to know if you have a training adding a dosage button to the home page.
O
I don't have a training on that specifically but do you have a website and donation processing system set up yet (like PayPal, Stripe, etc.?)? If so, they should have some great instructions on their site!
@@AmberMelanieSmith y
@@AmberMelanieSmith yes I do with PayPal still learning
Hi .
Since we don't have a budget, is there any way around that we could build a free website?
If you are willing to learn how to build a website yes there are some ways to do it! But you still need to pay for a domain name (if you want one) and hosting, usually.
This is a good bullet list summary if that's what you are looking for. However, if you were hoping for visual examples (screenshots, slides, graphics) try a different video
Helpful feedback, thanks!
Hi Amber! We have our website/domain and are up & running, thanks for these tips!!
Do you have any tips for what type of Facebook page to create for my nonprofit? I began one as a private page and now want to move to public, so I have to start all over. Should I create a page from my personal FB or create a “fake” account and create the NP page from it?; Or is there a better option, like a business type page & choose nonprofit? I just want to make a wise move this time! Any help is greatly appreciated!!
With a FB page you could assign multiple admins, if that helps. I do believe you have to create a business page from a personal page.
@@AmberMelanieSmith Thank you!! Yes, I am Pres/ED & we’re small, so I manage the page. Therefore, I believe it would be wise, with future growth in mind, to create a personal page strictly for creating our NP page and I put at least one other admin to help, (& in case anything happens that I can’t manage it). 🙂 I appreciate you!!!
Hi Amber. Does the number of followers in our facebook page matter? What's your opinion?
Growing your audience is important but only in the right way -- I would say engagement and relationships with your followers matter more. If you have 10,000 Facebook followers, but only a few talk to you, that may not help you raise funds or get volunteers.
OMGAHHHH! I am trying to help my parents build their nonprofit senior dog rescue but I am so not tech savvy (a horrible millennial, I know) I have a skeleton site at the moment...panic mode
Wordpress is your friend!
Hi,,is there away that a person can benefit from a non-profit organization?,if so plz shear
Hello! Do you mean can a person receive help / support from a nonprofit? If so, yes! Nonprofits are meant to help people - just depends on what your needs are!
@@AmberMelanieSmith,much appreciated your response,,but in a case where a surgery is needed is such help possible?-secondly if a person is not a member of the movement n also not in the country is such help possible?
@@-pizza_boy- Ah, I understand. Nonprofits are structured to serve entire communities, not really to benefit / support a single person; they require a board of directors and to be accountable to the public. That doesn't mean you couldn't start a fundraiser or project to raise money for a single person's needs though!
@@AmberMelanieSmith is there a better place we can meet wit this conversation please,,because am a person interested and in need of medical help for a surgery,,
