Volunteer: Squarespace Website Design

About the role

We seek a web designer to create structure and design options for our nonprofit website. We use Squarespace. The volunteer should assess and incorporate our goals and needs and consider our key audiences. The designer should also assess our technical capabilities. The project's deliverable is a draft of architecture and design concepts that we can easily share with a web developer volunteer or a member of our team who will use the guide to create our new site.

Project timeline & process

Our work will take place over multiple meetings in six to nine weeks.

• First meeting: interview us about our desired features, our web capabilities, and our technical expertise, then synthesize the information into a requirements briefing.
• Subsequent check-ins: a member or members of our team will provide feedback as you audit our current site to create a draft of site architecture and design options including wireframes, site structure, and other visual elements.

What we'll provide

We have already thought about and are prepared to brief you about our current website platform, budget restrictions for the build, our branding collaterals and norms, and information about our stakeholder groups and target audiences. We've also compiled some photos and have some language developed that we will share with you and samples of sites we like.

Website vision

I envision our website to be the virtual backbone of our business. It will be the place where volunteers and customers engage with us online for scheduling. It will be the tool that manages our inventory (current and historical). It will be a sales portal for donated goods, and most importantly it will be the professional face that our donors and benefactors see us through. I feel the website will be the window through which the world views us and our services.
