I have a nonprofit that I founded in 2000 overseas and in the US in 2014 but haven't been able to raise any funds for projects...just looking for a free resources to equip myself better. I feel I am good at actually doing the work but not so good at advertising and raising funds for ministry. I wonder if there are some trainings. our nonprofit can't hire folks to do those jobs so...just wondering

How much does it usually cost to have a basic website setup? And any suggestions on someone that can do it?
@AmberMelanieSmith
3 жыл бұрын
It can vary a lot! If you can build it yourself you can save a bit, and just pay for hosting / domain. If you are hiring someone to design it for you, could be anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand!

Hi . Since we don't have a budget, is there any way around that we could build a free website?
@AmberMelanieSmith

If you are willing to learn how to build a website yes there are some ways to do it! But you still need to pay for a domain name (if you want one) and hosting, usually.

Hi Amber! We have our website/domain and are up & running, thanks for these tips!! Do you have any tips for what type of Facebook page to create for my nonprofit? I began one as a private page and now want to move to public, so I have to start all over. Should I create a page from my personal FB or create a “fake” account and create the NP page from it?; Or is there a better option, like a business type page & choose nonprofit? I just want to make a wise move this time! Any help is greatly appreciated!!

With a FB page you could assign multiple admins, if that helps. I do believe you have to create a business page from a personal page.

@@AmberMelanieSmith Thank you!! Yes, I am Pres/ED & we’re small, so I manage the page. Therefore, I believe it would be wise, with future growth in mind, to create a personal page strictly for creating our NP page and I put at least one other admin to help, (& in case anything happens that I can’t manage it). 🙂 I appreciate you!!!

Hi Amber. Does the number of followers in our facebook page matter? What's your opinion?
@AmberMelanieSmith
3 жыл бұрын
Growing your audience is important but only in the right way -- I would say engagement and relationships with your followers matter more. If you have 10,000 Facebook followers, but only a few talk to you, that may not help you raise funds or get volunteers.

@@-pizza_boy- Ah, I understand. Nonprofits are structured to serve entire communities, not really to benefit / support a single person; they require a board of directors and to be accountable to the public. That doesn't mean you couldn't start a fundraiser or project to raise money for a single person's needs though!
