For causes, clubs and community groups

A website for your cause, without the budget.

What you do, why it matters and the three ways people can help, on one page a volunteer can update. Free to build, free to publish.

1

What does your group do?

Who you help, where, and the one thing you most need from a visitor: money, time or a sign-up.

Or start from one of these:
  • Lead with who you help, not your history
  • Link the donate button to your existing page
  • One number that shows impact

Pick a look

Two quick choices — skip them and we'll decide for you. Change any of it later.

3

Copy it, then bring back the reply

One tap copies everything. Paste it into an AI, then drop what it gives you back below.

Then open one of these and paste it in. All of them are free.
Paste the AI's reply here All of it, or just the code block. We'll sort out the rest.

Try it, name it, put it online

This is your real page, running. Have a play before anyone else sees it.

Your page
Your page appears here Paste the AI's reply above and it runs right here, for real.
Your site gets its own address. Pick what it says.

No account. No card. Live for 48 hours, and claim it free any time to keep it forever.

One page is enough

What should a charity or club website include?

Five things. A small group's site fails far more often from being out of date than from being too short, so build only what a volunteer will keep current.

  1. Who you help, in one sentence

    "We give free food parcels to families in Croydon, three days a week." Specific beats inspiring.

  2. One number that shows it working

    Parcels given, members, dogs rehomed, trees planted. People give to things that visibly happen.

  3. How to help, as separate options

    Donate, volunteer, spread the word. A button each, so nobody has to work out which you need.

  4. When and where

    Opening times, meeting dates, the address with a map link. This is what most visitors came for.

  5. How to get in touch

    A form or a shared email address, not a person's own, so it survives the next committee change.

Costs, plainly

How much does a nonprofit website cost?

Here, nothing, unless you want your own domain name.

Free, and it stays up

Build and publish on a siteseconds address, claim it with a free account, and it stays up permanently. No trial that runs out and no card on file.

$7 a month for your own domain

When you want yourgroup.org, connect it and the certificate is handled. The free address keeps working too.

Donations stay where they are. The donate button links to the page you already use, so receipts, Gift Aid and your bank details never pass through us.

Questions

Asked and answered

Is it really free for a nonprofit?

It is free for everyone, nonprofit or not. Build and publish on a siteseconds address and claim it with a free account to keep it permanently. Connecting your own domain is the only paid part, at $7 a month.

Can people donate through the site?

Point the donate button at the donation page you already use, such as JustGiving, GoFundMe, PayPal or your bank's giving link. Money never passes through us, which keeps your existing receipts and Gift Aid exactly as they are.

Can more than one volunteer keep it updated?

The site belongs to the account that claims it. A shared group email signed in with Google works well for a committee, so access doesn't leave when one volunteer does.

What should a charity website have on the first screen?

Who you help, where, and one button for the thing you most need. Visitors decide within seconds whether to read on, and a mission statement in general terms gives them nothing to decide with.

Can people sign up to volunteer?

Yes. Ask for a volunteer form and sign-ups arrive in your account once the site is claimed. A newsletter sign-up works the same way.
