Who We Serve
Choose your industry
Your charity needs a website that helps supporters follow through.
People check your mission, impact, and giving options right before deciding to donate. A clear charity website lays that out in one place so more visitors move from interest to action without hesitation.
Common challenges we hear from charities.
Your website should support fundraising, not leave donors unsure about their next step.
Your campaigns live on social media, but the website tells an older story.
Donors see recent posts and emails, then land on a site with past campaigns and outdated messaging. It creates hesitation right at the moment they consider giving.
Giving paths are confusing or hard to find.
Buttons, links, and third-party tools compete for attention. Supporters are not sure which option to use, or whether their gift will end up where they intend.
Fundraisers answer the same basic questions over and over.
Emails and calls repeat the same topics: how to give, where funds go, and how to get a receipt. Time that could go toward relationships gets spent clarifying logistics.
Campaign pages get spun up quickly, then left behind.
Short-term fundraising efforts get priority and then linger half-updated. New visitors arrive through an old link and do not see the full picture of your work.
What a charity website should give your donors and partners.
Clear reasons to give, simple ways to act, and steady information you feel comfortable pointing supporters toward.

What changes after your website launches.
Same mission and staff, with a site that shoulders more of the explaining and guiding each supporter through their next step.
More donors finish the gift they started
Giving buttons are easy to spot, the process feels steady, and questions get answered before someone hesitates. Donors feel clearer about where their support goes.
Teams report more completed online gifts and fewer abandoned giving attempts.
New supporters understand your work faster
Visitors can move from “I have heard of this charity” to “I see what they do and how I can help” within a few clicks, without hunting through old pages or PDFs.
Staff see more emails from people who already grasp the basics and are ready for a next step.
Fundraising staff spend less time on repeat explanations
The site carries more of the weight around how to give, where funds go, and how to get involved. Conversations that reach your team are more focused and relational.
Inbox volume shifts from basic process questions toward deeper partnership and grant conversations.
Board and champions have a link they can confidently share
When the website reflects current impact and campaigns, board members and key supporters feel comfortable sending it to friends, businesses, and grantmakers.
Referrals feel smoother, since the site backs up personal invitations with clear information.
Why work with Grid & Grove?
A website partner who understands that donor trust and staff time both matter.
Built with donor relationships in mind
We understand that trust, clarity, and follow-through matter at least as much as design. The site is shaped around real donor questions and needs.
We focus on simple language, clear giving paths, and layouts that respect donors’ time. Staff can point to the site during calls, visits, and presentations without worrying that it looks out of step.
Supports staff, board, and volunteer roles
Decisions involve many voices. You receive a written plan you can bring to leadership, development staff, and board members for feedback.
We expect review cycles and questions. Your proposal includes timeline, pricing, and what is included, so everyone can look it over and respond on their own schedule.
We handle updates so the site does not lag behind your work
Campaigns, staff shifts, and new initiatives surface quickly. Your team sends updates by email and we make the changes.
Your Care Plan includes edit time each month that can cover campaign highlights, new impact stories, and changes to giving language or options.
