Online fundraising, enter to win free site design and hosting for your nonprofit

For smaller nonprofits who are looking to expand their profile via online fundraising just getting a presence on the internet can sometimes be a challenge. Small organizations may not have the in-house expertise or spare funding to invest in establishing a website but the costs have come down significantly to get started, in fact a well known website builder is now offering registered nonprofits an opportunity to enter a drawing to acquire free services.

eBizWebpages.com recognize that many nonprofits are looking to move into the online arena to establish a new beacon in the internet age but sometimes find  the task daunting from a technical or financial standpoint. The company have established themselves as leading providers of services either make your own website or will also build affordable websites for clients. Now eBizWebpages.com are offering the chance for a nonprofit to be chosen every three months to receive a free website which will include site management, online hosting and domain registration for one year. This special new program commences on June 30.

The company assure that the free sites will be built to the same standards as the commercially built site for existing clients. Every winning nonprofit will be provided custom design services for a unique appearance and be able to draw upon the same platform of services that work on the backend of all eBizWebpages.com managed sites. Nor will the sites be plagued by any third party advertisements or have restrictions in domain name selections, each of those hindrances are typical with free website offers. eBizWebpages.com Vice President for Business Development Craig Stevens pointed out that the company have been providing support to nonprofit professional fundraisers throughout their ten years in operation by providing reduced rate and sometimes free services exclusively to the not for profit sector and see this as a natural progression. He added:

“With an announced and regularly scheduled submission and selection process, we can  help even more worthwhile organizations get an improved presence online. Today, every business needs a website if it’s to compete and be successful. We believe the same is true for nonprofits.”

The only restriction for this current offer is the specific sub-sector of fundraising activity, those organizations that wish to be considered need to be involved with services within its local community by offering housing, healthcare, social services, education or similar support. The application process is also open to nonprofits with an existing website but seek to improve to something more modern and dynamic. Overall I think its a great opportunity for smaller nonprofits to acquire a higher profile online with a professional looking site that has reliable functionality behind it.

In order to be considered for a free website, nonprofit organizations must be involved in an activity that addresses a specific need within its community, such as healthcare, housing, education or social services. Organizations that have existing websites but want a better one will also be considered. Applications must be submitted no later than June 30, 2011 and for consideration please visit www.ebizWebpages.com/app for details on the submission requisites and to complete the application. Winners will then be chosen on a quarterly basis for the next year to receive a free website. Details of any and all restrictions appear on the application page. While this invitation provides a chance to win free services it also introduces the chance to have a site designed for low cost with a provider who have an established decade’s worth of experience in building such sites, many with nonprofits. I hope you might be able to take advantage of the drawing and even win, or refer this special program to someone else whose nonprofit may be positioned to benefit.
