# Charities and NGOs

Small charities run on passion, volunteers and tight budgets. We build simple tech that brings in donations, keeps supporters close and cuts the admin, so more of every pound goes to the cause.

## The things that eat your day

- A tiny team with a huge to-do list
- Donations and Gift Aid tracked in spreadsheets
- Volunteer rotas lost in email and WhatsApp
- Keeping supporter data safe and GDPR-friendly

## How we help

- **A website that makes giving easy** (Websites). Tell your story clearly, take donations online with Gift Aid built in, and let people sign up for events and volunteering.
- **One simple supporter database** (Business software). Donations, Gift Aid, volunteers and grants in one place, instead of five spreadsheets.
- **A helper for the people you support** (AI helper). Answers common questions from service users and volunteers and points them to the right help, 24 hours a day.
- **A volunteer app** (Mobile apps). Rotas, check-ins and updates in one place, so nobody is left out of the loop.

## Built in from the start

- Gift Aid declarations captured properly with every donation
- Supporter consent recorded the way UK GDPR and the Fundraising Regulator expect
- Accessible websites, so everyone you serve can use them
- Sensitive information kept private, with access only for those who need it

## Example: A volunteer-run food bank

Problem: Volunteer rotas in group chats and donation drop-off details scattered across social media.

What we do: A simple website showing drop-off times and what's needed this week, plus an online volunteer rota.

Result: Fewer no-shows, fewer “what do you need?” calls, and more time for the people who come in.

## Questions

**We have a very small budget. Is this for us?** Yes. Tell us your budget on the free chat and we'll scope something that fits it, starting with whatever saves you the most time.

**Can you work with our donation platform?** Usually. We can link your site to the giving platform you already use, or set up simple online donations for you.

**We have no IT person. Is that a problem?** Not at all. Most of the charities we speak to don't. We explain everything simply and look after the technical side.
