It's really important to me to make sure every website is easy to understand, trust, and take action on.
Ease
Charity websites need to work for everyone - supporters, whānau, donors, volunteers, and the communities you serve. I focus on clear, simple design so people can quickly understand your kaupapa and how to get involved.
Trust
Non-profits rely on credibility. When your website feels calm, professional, and well structured, supporters feel confident their time and donations are going to a trustworthy place.
Action
Every organisation has key actions that matter: donating, signing up, volunteering, joining programmes, or asking for help. I design your website so these actions are obvious, easy, and frictionless for the people who want to support you.
Free Website Redesign
I’m redesigning 12 websites for free in 2026
For organisations who feel their website looks outdated or unclear and want to improve donations or volunteer interest.
How I like to work
I work in stages so decisions stay clear and manageable. This gives us time to adjust as needed and move forward together toward an outcome we both understand and feel confident in.
1. Strategy
We start by getting clear on what you need your website to do.
This includes:
- reviewing your current site
- mapping all pages
- deciding what stays, what goes, and what needs improving
- drafting a simple sitemap
- creating wireframes (the blueprint of each page)
2. Design
Once the plan is approved, I design your website.
This includes:
- creating a visual direction
- designing your homepage
- extending the design across all the key page templates
- building a simple, consistent design system (colours, spacing, components)
3. Build
When you’re happy with the designs, I build the site in Webflow.
This includes:
- building pages in Webflow
- setting up CMS collections where needed
- adding and structuring content
- testing across devices and screen sizes
4. Launch
Once it's time, I make sure everything goes live smoothly and set us up so that I can continue supporting you afterwards.
This includes:
- final checks and go-live support
- helping your team get comfortable using the site
- monitoring performance after launch
- making small improvements as needed
