For Non-Profits
Non-Profit Web Design That Makes an Impact
Your non-profit deserves a website that works as hard as you do — helping you reach supporters, engage your community, and tell your story clearly.
Who We Serve
Built for Organizations That Give Back
We've worked with non-profits, charities, schools and community organizations across Hamilton, Ontario and beyond for more than a decade. We understand that these projects often involve multiple stakeholders, tight budgets, accessibility requirements and teams that need to manage content themselves.
Our goal is straightforward: build a website that's easy for your organization to manage and easy for the people you serve to use.
Supporting the non-profit sector is also important to us. We offer reduced rates for registered non-profits, contribute to local causes and sponsor community events throughout the year.

What Non-Profits Say About Us
I have worked with many web development companies in my career — most of them painful — until I worked with EB Media. They are the easiest vendor I work with. The work is top-notch, usually exceeds what I ask for, and gets done without a lot of drama.
They consistently went above and beyond what was expected. What stood out most was how much they cared about our mission — as a charity, it meant a great deal to work with a team that didn’t just provide a service but truly supported our organization.
Our Foundation hired EB Media to refresh our website and create an online funding application form. Working with Erik and Barrett was an absolute pleasure. They were professional, knowledgeable and very responsive to my many phone calls.
The team at EB Media created a beautiful and functional new site to share information about our programs, donation options and news. They offered a great amount of flexibility as we navigated creating a new site during the COVID-19 pandemic.
EB Media created an incredible website for us, that’s both functional and beautiful. They made the process simple and easy for our busy staff members, creating an end product that’s editable, user-friendly and interactive.
EB Media helped us successfully launch a new groups calendar on our website — a tight timeline with high expectations. Their expertise and problem-solving approach ensured the solution met our needs, and they were quick to troubleshoot any issues after launch.
We wanted a firm that understood our non-profit business and could bring a fresh perspective. EB Media exceeded our expectations, advising us on the most effective messaging based on their SEO expertise. Our website now has a fresh, crisp and targeted presence.
Our non-profit hired EB Media to update the functionality and design of our website. The team offered guidance and suggestions along the way, and more importantly, they were very patient and understanding of our capacity as a non-profit.
I’ve been working with Erik and the EB Media team for several years and have always had a very positive experience. They are incredibly responsive to our needs, knowledgeable about the products and services they offer, and generous with their time and support.
Erik and the EB Media team brought our goal of a new responsive website that is easy to navigate to reality. They were quick to answer our questions and patient through our changes. We would highly recommend them.
FAQ
Common Questions
Every project is scoped individually, so cost depends on the size of the website and what it needs to do. We’ll talk through your goals in a free consultation and give you a written quote before any work begins — no surprises later. Registered non-profits receive reduced rates.
Yes. We offer reduced rates for registered non-profits, and we contribute to local causes and sponsor community events through the year. Supporting the sector matters to us beyond the invoice.
Most non-profit websites are completed within 6–8 weeks, depending on the size of the project and how quickly we receive your content. We’ll set a clear timeline with you from day one.
Mostly your content and your input. We’ll ask for text, images, and any existing brand materials, then guide you through anything that’s missing. Most of your time goes into reviewing drafts and giving feedback — we handle the rest.
Yes. We’re based in Hamilton and work with organizations across Ontario and the rest of Canada. Most of the process happens over email and video calls, so your location doesn’t limit what we can build together.
Accessibility is considered throughout design and development — colour contrast, keyboard navigation, semantic structure, and descriptive text for images are part of how we build rather than an add-on. If your organization needs to meet a specific standard, such as WCAG 2.1 AA or an AODA obligation tied to your funding or reporting, we define that requirement at the start of the project and scope the testing to match. Tell us early if it applies, because it shapes the build rather than being bolted on at the end.
Yes. We build donation forms and payment flows directly into your site and work with whichever platform your organization already uses — or help you choose one if you’re starting from scratch. The goal is for supporters to be able to give in as few steps as possible, without being handed off to something that looks like a different website.
It’s our own content management system, built and maintained in-house. Rather than starting from a generic platform and bending it to fit, we set it up around the content your organization actually manages — projects, events, programs, staff, whatever your site needs. You get a straightforward admin area, and support comes from the people who built it. We also work in WordPress when a project calls for it.
Yes, for the content areas your site is set up with — news, events, programs, staff, and whatever else your organization updates regularly. The EB Media CMS is configured around those areas rather than exposing every part of the site, which keeps day-to-day updates quick and hard to break. Every project includes a personalized training session so your team knows exactly what they can change.
Yes, we can handle both hosting and domain registration for you, or work with your existing providers if you already have those set up.
Yes, we include a personalized training session with every site and offer ongoing maintenance packages. We’re here when you need us — before and after launch.
Your team will have access to manage the content areas included in your website’s CMS, such as news, events, programs, staff or other frequently updated information. We’ll walk your team through everything during training. Because the EB Media CMS is our proprietary hosted platform, the underlying system itself isn’t transferred or administered like a WordPress installation. If your organization requires WordPress or another platform, we can discuss that at the start of the project.
