Web Design Patterns for Nonprofits

posted on February 11, 2019

Speaker: Brigit Pauli-Haack – We’ve read a lot of “Trends” articles and listicles at the beginning of 2019. If we are honest, the basics have not changed between 2017, 2018 or 2019. So let’s talk about the Website Design Patterns. What is it you and your organization would need to work on to better reach your constituents and supporters? How can you make online donations easier on mobile devices? How can more people learn about your organization, your cause and your events?

We revisit how the basic online interactions change depending on device, speed and goals.

Birgit Pauli-Haack, co-founder of NPTechProjects, will lead a discussion among attendee nonprofits about storytelling and donor experiences. Amid the cacophony of the internet noise, how can your organization reach the next level and stay relevant to supporters, donors and ambassadors.

Enter the country where every page is a landing page, every post has a call to action, and every story is told in multimedia.
