Charity Web Design | Charity Website Design Agency

Custom charity web design

Charities have an important message to share, and in many cases this message is unique as you aim to achieve a benefit to society that no other organisation is able to offer.

Investing in a bespoke charity web design allows you to maximise the benefits you get for your investment, allowing you to justify any spending made from the donations you receive.

At visionsharp we always work hard to provide you with the best possible return on your investment.

Your new charity website will become the hardest working, most effective member of the team. As the digital hub for all of your online and offline activities we’ll integrate blogs, newsletters, social media posts and video with an easy to use admin panel allowing you to update your site in the future and keep it looking fresh.

Many of the charity websites we build use familiar and intuitive content management systems like WordPress and Concrete5, which you can have maintained by a digital marketing agency or update yourself using the simple back-end dashboards.

In addition, we can equip your website with integrated features like the ability to donate online, recruit volunteers or sell products. Digitising these tasks can help your organisation grow by reaching a wider audience cost effectively, 24/7.

 

Multi-faceted functionality for charity websites

 

Good charity web design should be more than just a holding page with the address of your offices, shop, or contact details for donations.

The charity websites designed and developed by visionsharp go far beyond a static web page, bringing together all of the different ways for people to contact you, donate or otherwise engage with your organisation.

Some examples of how this can be achieved with a custom charity website design include:

  • Integration of online donations and mobile/SMS donation.
  • Opportunities to volunteer to support your charity in person.
  • Ecommerce software to allow you to sell donated items directly online.

Research by the National Philanthropic Trust UK found online donations increased by 17% between 2017 and 2018 alone and a record high of 8.4% of all fundraising revenue was raised via the web in 2018.

This potential will only continue to grow in the years to come – invest in a bespoke charity website now and you can stay ahead of that curve, but it’s important to recognise that in the near future a fully functional fundraising website is likely to become absolutely essential for all charities that want to thrive.

No matter how your third-sector organisation generates its revenue, a bespoke charity website design can help you to reach a wider audience and share your message more effectively online.

At visionsharp we have considerable expertise working within the third-sector to develop charity websites that are truly original, and our charity design team is ready and waiting to help your charity smash its fundraising targets for the years ahead.

Tailored Charity Website Design Built for Your Organisation

We don’t use templates or pre-built themes. Every charity we work with has a unique purpose, audience and story to tell, and your website should reflect that individuality. A one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn’t do justice to the important work your organisation carries out.

As an experienced charity web design agency, we create fully bespoke websites that are tailored to your goals, values and audience. Each project is designed from the ground up to support your mission, communicate your impact and help your organisation stand out in a crowded digital space.

Our process is collaborative and transparent. We take the time to understand what drives your charity, what makes you different and how you want to engage supporters. This insight allows us to design a website that feels authentic, purposeful and aligned with your long-term objectives.

The result is a custom-built digital presence that not only looks distinctive, but works hard to support fundraising, awareness and engagement across all channels.

Visually stunning graphic design that carries the right level of brand prestige.

Integrated ecommerce capabilities for websites that accept online orders.

Ability to update content with new ecommerce items and/or web pages for new season collections.

Our Approach to charity web design and development.

Our skilled team of website developers in Manchester bring creativity and reliability to every project, no matter how simple or complex, ensuring a high quality end product that achieves the objectives set out in the project scope.

When it’s time to build or redesign a website for your charity, you can count on Visionsharp to deliver.
