Services for Charities
Many charities are taking advantage of the new ecommerce world and selling online. Getting online is a great way to expand your reach and supporter base. More and more people are supporting their chosen charities online whether that’s through online donations, memberships or buying products.
But the process of getting your charity online might feel like a huge undertaking. Especially if you want to set up your site with multiple functions like the ability to sell products, memberships, receive donations and communicate with your supporters. Many large charities are already online but for smaller charities with limited income and resources it’s not as easy to manage.
Charities that aren’t yet online cite more important things getting in the way of taking that big step as well as a lack of skills and funds to manage a website and e-commerce system. But that doesn’t need to stop you from getting online and taking advantage of the potential for increased revenue.
