We build the brand people find when they look your nonprofit up.
connectNPO is a small team for small and mid-sized nonprofits. We set one name, one look and one voice, and carry them through a website we design, write and keep current: into search and AI answers, one-minute story videos, and the numbers that show what the money did. We work remotely and in writing, and staff can keep the site current without us.

Good work, hard to see.
A funder looks a small nonprofit up before saying yes. The name is spelled two ways, the site still lists last year's programs, the story of the year is nowhere, and the numbers sit in a PDF on someone's laptop. The work was good. What they found was not.
connectNPO grew out of GivingArc, a nonprofit accounting practice we run alongside it. The two do not overlap: GivingArc keeps the books, and connectNPO builds the website the books end up on. What we kept seeing from the accounting side was the same scene: an organization doing good work, a year that added up, and a website, a search result and a story that showed neither.
The websites were not broken. They were built for launch day by a volunteer or an agency, and then left, because a staff of four has no developer and no time. So we started building the other kind: one brand, set once and kept the same everywhere people look, on sites that stay current because staff can change them on one screen.
Everything on this site is one team's answer to that scene. We do not give accounting, tax or legal advice here, and we say so wherever it could be mistaken for it.
In writing, from proven parts, fitted to your organization.
Four things we would rather lose a client over.
Practical help, not packages
We build what your team actually needs and can maintain, not bundled deliverables designed for invoices. One plan, and everything it covers is listed on one page.
Your brand, your story and your numbers are one thing
A search result opens a page; the page has to be current; a funder who checks wants to see what the work achieved, in a story that agrees with the numbers. Sold apart, each tells a slightly different story.
Plain language is a form of respect
No jargon. If something cannot be explained simply on the page, it is not ready to be sold.
Fit matters more than revenue
If we are not the right help for your organization, we say so in the reply and point you somewhere better. Organizations under about $50,000 usually hear that a free page builder is the honest answer.
Said here so nobody has to ask.
Each of these is a line we hold on every page of this site and on every sample.
- ✕Write grants or run your social media, or call a website a funding strategy
- ✕Give accounting, tax, legal or Form 990 advice. We publish what your accountant prepares
- ✕Invent statistics, testimonials or client examples. The sample sites are invented organizations and say so on every page
- ✕Show client work without consent. No sample is a client; nothing on them is a client's data
- ✕Put ratings badges on a site. The documents speak for themselves
- ✕Require a call. Everything it costs and everything it includes is on the pricing page
A small team that works with nonprofits every day.
Web development, writing, design and the operations side, working remotely. Alongside connectNPO the same people run GivingArc, a nonprofit accounting practice; the two share an understanding of how a small nonprofit actually runs, and nothing else.
There are no names or portraits on this page, on purpose. The credential is the work: fifteen sample sites you can open, press and sign in to, and a pricing page that says what is included and what is not. If a site we built for you is ever what you show a funder, that is the reference we want.
