Flexible Web Development Support
Flexible Web Development Support
Project details
What we need
- Ongoing web development support for 10-15 hours over the course of 4 weeks
- Support may include: website maintenance, updates or improvements
- Note: We devised this project to connect nonprofits and volunteers for more flexible, more immediate impact. We strongly suggest you start with 4 weeks and decide from there if you'd like to continue working.
Additional details
We have a Squarespace website and could use an expert's assistance: 1) we have some challenges with the template and would like help thinking through fixes 2) we would like to have the option for the site to be translated and/or to offer the site in Spanish and need help understanding the best way to do this and 3) other needs TBD :)
What we have in place
- We currently have a Squarespace website and outlined project needs, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a team that is excited to help in any way that we can, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,757 , allowing us to dedicate money saved toward supporting more teachers and impacting more children. It will also help us grow sustainable revenue and compel donors to support our critical mission.
We now have two audiences for our website - donors who give charitable gifts to support our mission and schools and districts who are paying to participate in our program, bringing in sustainable revenue. Our website is a critical tool for both of these audiences, so ensuring it is as functional and usable as possible is key to reaching our mission and providing a quality education to underserved youth.
Project plan
Our mission
TeachUNITED is a global non-profit dedicated to reducing poverty and inequality through education. We focus on underserved communities where educational disparities are most acute.
What we do
Every child on the planet deserves access to an equitable and quality education.
Yet 250 million kids around the world still leave school without
critical reading, writing & math skills.
If current trends continue, by 2030 more than 750 million young people will not be on track to acquire basic secondary level skills. A global teacher shortage, estimated to reach 69 million by 2030, makes this learning crisis even more pressing. Without action, more than a quarter of the population in low-income countries -- more than 1.5 billion adults -- could be living in extreme poverty in 2050. Underserved and rural areas are the hardest hit.
TeachUNITED is determined to change that.
Our core belief is that a quality education is possible when students are taught by quality teachers. By providing training, resources, and long-term connections for teachers in underserved communities, we improve student learning outcomes.
