The Top 13 Nonprofit Websites

Greenbelt’s website is not only professionally presented and easy to navigate, but it also offers visitors everything they need to know about who the organization is, what it does, and how to get involved.

Immediately after landing on their homepage, a live slideshow cycles through images of protected land with call-to-action buttons that link out to other important pages on their website. As you scroll down, you can read more about the basics of what the organization does and how you can give your support.

Greenbelt’s website is intuitive to navigate, offering a clean navigation menu with drop-down options so you can find exactly the information you’re looking for. Their beautiful nonprofit website design makes an excellent impression on all visitors.

When you land on the Memphis Zoo’s site, you’re immediately drawn in by full-screen footage of their animals and exhibits.

The only other elements on their homepage are their logo, a call-to-action urging you to “Discover Your Memphis Zoo,” and a button that visitors can click to scroll down and learn more. This minimalism creates visual impact and makes their site easy to navigate.

They also have a bunch of unique and graphically interesting features, like a gallery you can click through to get to know their animals a little better (pictured above!).

The sheer creativity and interactivity of We Heart Trees’ website makes it one of the most attention-grabbing and memorable nonprofit websites out there.

Just take their homepage; instead of going for a traditional design and content strategy, the organization features an Arbor Day quiz visitors can take to find out which celebrity tree they are.

Each celebrity tree’s clever and quirky bio illustrates the characteristics of a certain type of real-life tree, so along with being fun, the experience is 100% educational!

To Write Love On Her Arms began with a story and continues to thrive through storytelling.

Their “Learn” page lays out the organization’s whole conception and evolution in an easy-to-follow timeline format, bringing the story to the forefront to inspire donors and service recipients alike with their mission.

Not to mention, TWLOHA has an excellent, multivocal blog that features stories about experiences with mental health from people all over the world. The structure and content strategy of their site perfectly embodies the community mindset that’s essential to their mission.

Abundant Living Faith Center’s website is extremely thorough. They include every piece of information that visitors could possibly find of interest.

For example, they have a page that walks visitors step-by-step through everything they need to know when attending their first service, helping them feel more comfortable taking the leap to become one of the congregation.

Another notable feature is their sermons, which they live stream weekly and then archive on their website. You can attend services past and present without even leaving your house!

The branding on Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation is vivid and consistent, reinforcing to users that they’re interacting with a website they can trust.

The look and feel of the website is incredibly thoughtful. Since they serve kids, ALSF opted to use bright colors, whimsical fonts, and friendly icons, some of which look like they could have even been drawn by the kids themselves!

Their branding not only captures the attention of even the youngest visitors (after all, Alex teaches us that anyone, regardless of age, can make an impact), but also conveys who they are as an organization from the minute a visitor lands on the page.

PeacePlayers International’s website brings the most important aspects of their organization to the forefront: the people they serve and the opportunity for supporters to further the cause.

When you land on the homepage, the first thing you see is real footage of the children they serve playing basketball, overlaid with their mission statement and a donation button.

This homepage design leaves no uncertainty around who the organization is, what they do, and where visitors can go to start supporting them, likely resulting in deeper online engagement and more donations!
