Proposal

Friends of O'Farrell, Inc.

Prepared By DeWayne Woods

Date March 1, 2026

Three Directions. One Clear Path Forward.

Three complete website concepts have been developed for Friends of O'Farrell, Inc. Each takes a different approach to communicating your mission — while holding to a five-page structure built for visibility, credibility, and secure online giving. This proposal covers the selection process, what is included at each investment level, and what happens after a direction is confirmed.

Five-Page Structure

Every concept shares the same five pages: Home, About/Mission, Programs/Initiatives, Donate, and Contact. All are mobile-responsive and built for long-term use.

Built for Non-Profit Impact

Each direction is designed to serve your community — with secure giving, clear messaging, and the operational credibility your organization deserves.

Flexible Investment Tiers

Three investment levels allow you to select the depth of support that matches where your organization is today and where you are headed.

Your Team Decides

Your team will review the three concepts and select the direction that best represents Friends of O'Farrell, Inc. From there, refinement and integration begin.

Choose the Emphasis That Fits Your Mission

The difference between the three concepts is not the structure — it is where the emphasis lands. Each option is a fully realized direction, not a rough draft.

01

Mission-Forward Storytelling

Leads with narrative clarity and visual engagement — placing the heart of the work front and center. Ideal for organizations whose story is their strongest asset.

Narrative & Emotion
02

Program-Focused Structure

Highlights initiatives and operational credibility — reinforcing organizational strength. Best for communicating the breadth and depth of your programs.

Credibility & Depth
03

Donor-Optimized Engagement

Built to make navigation intuitive and giving simple — reducing friction and guiding action. Designed to convert visitors into committed supporters.

  • Hosting management and oversight
  • Security monitoring and performance checks
  • Website updates and plugin monitoring

$200/month

Ownership, Hosting & Secure Donations

Hosting, domain registration, and third-party subscription services are not included in the project investment. Friends of O'Farrell, Inc. will retain full ownership of all core digital accounts — ensuring long-term independence and control over your infrastructure regardless of future vendor or partner changes.

What You Will Own & Control

  • Domain registration
  • Hosting account
  • Payment processor account
  • Email marketing platform
  • CRM tools

Secure Donation Processing

  • Payment processor selection (Stripe, PayPal, Donorbox, etc.)
  • Nonprofit documentation verification
  • Secure bank account connection
  • Transaction testing and confirmation
  • Confirmation email configuration
  • Basic fraud protection setup

Guidance will be provided during setup to ensure everything is configured properly. Organizations that prefer to hand off ongoing management after launch may consider the Optional Managed Hosting & Maintenance Plan. Technical setup and guidance are included in the project investment. Financial and legal verification must be completed by the organization. Final launch depends on successful processor approval — timelines for that are handled directly between Friends of O'Farrell, Inc. and the selected payment provider.
