Strategic guidance, board advisory and hands-on digital support for churches, nonprofits and purpose-led organizations.
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.
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. Whether you need a board voice or practical help, you deal with one person: me.
Operation Christmas RGV serves thousands of Rio Grande Valley families year-round, but its programs and story were scattered across social media. Families looking for help and supporters looking to give had no single place to start, and much of the work was easy to miss.
Through the Charter Charity Program, I designed a logo and built a bilingual English and Spanish website at no cost. I organized their programs, events and ways to give into clear, simple pages, and I keep the site secure, backed up and up to date after launch.
Families and supporters now have one clear path to find support, join an event, donate or volunteer, in the language they are most comfortable with. The team has a home base to point every post, flyer and conversation back to.
Leduc Junior Athletic Club was paying full price for Google Workspace, with email and files tied to individual volunteers. When a volunteer stepped away, the club’s email history and documents could walk out the door with them, and the subscription came out of a budget meant for athletes and programs.
Alongside a migration partner, we moved the club to Microsoft 365 in one week, from the first data sync to the live cutover. I secured the Microsoft nonprofit grant and set up role-based inboxes, so accounts belong to positions instead of people.
Role-based inboxes like gm@ and info@ now stay with the position as volunteers change, and the club’s licences are covered by the grant. Money that went to software can go back into the club, and the next volunteer in each role inherits everything they need on day one.
Rotary Club of Nisku-Leduc meets every Thursday at 7:00 a.m., and not every member can be in the room. Work, travel and Alberta winters keep good people away, and a club that only meets in person risks losing their voices.
We set up and ran weekly hybrid meetings with an Owl 360° camera, so the whole room is visible on Zoom. The technology is handled before the meeting begins, so speakers, members in the room and members online can focus on the meeting itself.
Members who are travelling, working or snowed in can still see, hear and take part. Remote members stay connected week to week, and today I take part in the club as a remote member myself.
“Chris is clear, responsive, and genuinely cares about getting things right.”
“One of the things that I like most about working with Chris is that he has been very responsive when I have needed technical help.”
You own every domain, login and line of code, with a full handoff if we ever part ways.
Every build starts with what your organization needs, and I’ll tell you honestly if you don’t need a new site.
A fixed quote and plain-language scope, with no surprises on the invoice.
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 build a complete logo and 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. After launch, your site can stay hosted and maintained on a monthly partnership.
Honest scope, in writing. Plain-language strategy. Code you actually own.
