For nonprofits, First Nations, and community organizations

A website the people you exist to serve can actually use.

You own the funding, the staffing, the programs and the board relationship. The website is the one thing on that list with no expertise attached to it.

We design, build and manage accessible websites for nonprofits, First Nations and community organizations in Canada and the US. Based in Lethbridge, Alberta.

Free, 15 minutes, no obligation.

The part nobody raises

An unusable website does not fall short of a standard. It contradicts the work.

Most organizations find this out sideways. Somebody cannot complete the form, cannot read the page on a phone, cannot get through with a screen reader, and nobody hears about it. The mandate says serve everyone. The website is making a different decision, and nobody in the building knows it.

"It's ironic, and perhaps a little embarrassing, that as an organisation that advocates and teaches DEIA&B to leaders, we had not considered accessibility in our website structure."

Who this is for

The website is just one of 40 things you are responsible for.

You have allocated money rather than hoped-for money, and someone asks you what it bought. A board, a council, a funder. That is a different conversation from whether the site looks good.

"It was very stressful and difficult for our whole board of directors to deal with. I'm not very computer-y myself, and I used to lose sleep worrying about how we were going to deal with the website."

Why us

The credential usually sits inside a large institution. Here it is on your project.

I hold the CPACC, the professional certification in accessibility core competencies, issued by the International Association of Accessibility Professionals. It is the kind of credential usually put to work inside big institutions, and I am one of very few bringing that rigour to organizations your size. It is held by the person doing the work rather than bought in for the project.

Every site is built to WCAG 2.2 Level AA guidelines from the start. Not added at the end, and not a widget bolted on, because that kind does not hold. At least 95.9% of websites fail basic accessibility testing, according to WebAIM’s 2026 survey of a million home pages. This is not a standard most organizations are meeting by accident.

You will not need technical capacity you do not have.

Not during the project and not after it. We handle the build, and a care plan handles everything after launch, so the website stops being the responsibility with nobody attached to it. That includes when your staff changes.

What this looks like in practice

4 years, a full rebrand, and the website never became anyone's problem.

CORE Support Services came to us in 2022, back when they were Kings Regional Rehabilitation Centre. Their IT lead runs the organization’s intranet on a version of the same domain, and we built around his work rather than over it.

Since then they have changed their name, changed staff more than once, and kept the website running through all of it.

"We had been unhappy with our old website for some time. Both its visual appearance and its technology were outdated and no longer met our needs. We have been very pleased with the look and functionality of the new website, and we feel it provides a much better reflection of who we are as an organization and the vibrant community we are proud to support."

Case studies

Two organizations, in their own words.

Written to be forwarded. Each one covers what the organization needed, what changed, and what it has meant since.

How it works

What this takes from you.

01

A 15-minute call.

What you have, what it has to do, and who has to be able to use it. Bring your board’s questions.

02

A proposal you can hand to someone.

Scope, cost and timeline in writing, in language a funder will follow.

03

We build it.

A couple of scheduled calls and one round of review. The words get drafted for you.

04

We keep it running.

A care plan from launch, so the website is not back on your desk in 6 months.

Questions boards ask.

No, and be careful with anyone who says they can without doing an audit. A conformance statement is an audit deliverable and it is a different discipline from building. What I do is use my CPACC certification and my experience to build to WCAG 2.2 Level AA guidelines from the start, so most barriers never get built in. If your funder or your board needs a formal audit, that is specialist work and I will point you to someone who does it properly.

No, and this is the part most organizations are surprised by. Nobody on your team needs to log in, update anything or know what a plugin is, during the project or after it. If your staff changes, the website is not affected.

No. I'm based in Lethbridge, Alberta, and we work with organizations across Canada and the US. Everything happens over video calls and recorded walkthroughs your board can watch on their own time. Both case studies on this page are Nova Scotia organizations.

It depends on where you operate and what kind of organization you are, and the answer is different in Ontario than it is in Alberta. Most organizations have not been told this either way. We are not lawyers. We will talk through what applies to you on the call rather than guessing at it here.

You get a written proposal with scope, cost and timeline you can put in front of them, and a case study you can attach to it. The argument that tends to land is not the website. It is that an organization whose mandate is serving people cannot run a service that excludes some of them.

Website rebuilds start at $11,500. Care plans start at $149 a month. New builds are priced separately and are on their own page. Currency is set by where you are based and confirmed on the call.

Bring your board's questions to a 15-minute call.

We will look at what you have, what it needs to do, and who has to be able to use it. You will leave with a clear sense of the work and the cost, whether or not you hire us.

Free. 15 minutes. No obligation.
