Website Feature Updates (Wix)

Our nonprofit is looking to add three new and interrelated features to our website. 1) e-commerce 2) membership community 3) chapter membership-only page access.

We are happy with the design our current website and want to add these additional components in a seamless way, making minimal changes to current design, and using best practices and best match necessary platforms/plugins/apps for these new features. We would like to further develop our website that is easy to maintain while providing an appealing interface for users.

Our goal is a useful, easy to use site that encourages 1) time spent on the site, 2) conversion to event registrants , and 3) conversion to memberships.

Inform Your Community fosters a more informed electorate encompassed by the four C's: civics, civic engagement, civility, and civil rights. We use entertainment experiences to provide important, relevant, and impactful information to children and adults of all ages through fun, free, and meaningful events. The volunteer who works on this project will advance many issues that are integral to understanding to foster civic engagement. Please see previous issues that our events have covered https://www.informyourcommunity.org/get-informed and our future events at https://www.informyourcommunity.org/events.

This is an integral project for our organization because we are looking to grow our national presence. we now have attendees from up to 32 different states at our online events. We are looking to increase our footprint nationally for our virtual events as well as grow to in-person chapters across the country.

In addition to helping out an important cause in the midst of what people perceive as a politically divisive time, the volunteers will get an amazing line on their resume and be able to see/share the website build-out!

We currently use Wix and we already have a platform selected for the membership community that we need to integrate into our current page. We know this is an ongoing project and are looking for an intrepid volunteer to get us started. This design and build-out will grow in conjunction with our growth into new in-person chapters around the country.
