Session Overview
Wordpress website development skills required. I have a current website which needs to be upgraded: https://goodsendapp.com.
Also will need some SEO expertise to optimize the website going forward. Site should be optimized to showcase our partners, blog / updates, app features and drive users to download the Goodsend app.
Nonprofit Overview
Goodsend is a P2P giving platform that allows donors to send cash directly to local students and families living in poverty, helping them to cover basic needs. We work with social workers at 30+ schools and nonprofits in Chicago to identify students and families in need of assistance. Donors then use our mobile and web-giving platforms to simply and securely donate directly to these intended recipients in need.
Since 2021, 1K+ donors have signed up to send $50,000+ in cash donations directly to over 300 students and families in need in Chicago. In 2023, Goodsend plans to grow its presence via social media marketing and in-person events. We also plan to launch our local P2P giving program in additional communities in the US, such as the Bay Area, Austin, Atlanta, and New York City.
Goodsend is currently a member of the prestigious Goodie Nation and Blackbaud accelerator programs for social good startups. Our innovative work in direct giving has been covered in Forbes, The Hustle, and Built In Chicago.
