I’m looking for a director seat with a nonprofit, charity or faith-based organization. I help boards ask the questions that protect the mission: who owns the website, the data and the accounts, and are they secure?
What I bring to a board
A free 15-point checklist for nonprofits, churches and mission-driven organizations. In about 15 minutes, find out whether you truly own your website, whether it’s protected, and whether it’s helping people give, volunteer and get in touch.
Who really holds your domain, logins and code, and whether you could leave your provider tomorrow.
The quick signs that your site is protected, up to date and free of forgotten admin accounts.
Whether you could recover from a crash, and who you’d call if it happened tonight.
Whether a first-time visitor understands what you do and knows what to do next.
How your site works on a phone, how easy it is to give, and how you show up on Google.
For ten years, Rotary has taught me how volunteer organizations really work. With the Rotary Club of Red Deer East and Nisku-Leduc Rotary, I handled club administration, communications and hybrid meetings. Closer to home, my wife and I help run a Food Bank depot in northeast Edmonton through Freedom Centre Church. I also mentor and support other creatives.
At the board table, I bring the digital side of governance into focus. With more than 100 websites managed since 1998, I help leaders ask the right questions about data risk, donor privacy, and who owns the domain, accounts and logins. Board service and client work stay separate: if I serve on your board, I take no paid work from your organization.
You own every domain, login and line of code. You get full admin access to every account, never a locked reseller panel, so nothing about your site is held hostage. If you ever want to bring in another developer or manage things yourself, the door is always open. And if we ever part ways, you get a complete handoff with everything you need to keep going without me.
Every build starts with what your organization actually needs, not what looks good in a portfolio. Before anything gets designed, I take the time to understand who you serve and what your website needs to do for them. Design serves function, so every page has a job to do for your mission. Every new site is custom coded in static HTML, with no WordPress or page builder, so it loads fast and leaves far less to break, patch or hack. And if a refresh or a few fixes will do the trick, I’ll tell you honestly that you don’t need a new site.
Every project gets a fixed quote and a clear list of what’s included, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. The price we agree on is the price you pay, with no retainers unless you ask for one and no surprises on the invoice. If something comes up along the way that wasn’t in the original scope, I’ll explain what it involves and what it would cost, and nothing moves forward until you say yes.
Monthly Partnership
Every website I build, including Charter Charity sites, can stay licensed, hosted and maintained through one simple monthly partnership.
Charter Charity Program
Each month I design a logo and build a complete, custom coded static HTML website for a qualifying nonprofit, church or mission-driven organization, a $2,500 value given because the work matters.
Who qualifies: nonprofits, churches and mission-driven organizations, one each month, selected at my discretion. After launch, your site stays hosted, secured and maintained on my Basic partnership at half price, $48.50 a month instead of $97, month to month with no contract.
