Website Construction (CMS-Based)
Project details
What we need
- Development of a new website using a Content Management System (CMS)
- Training to ensure Organization's staff members can update content and manage the site post-launch
- Note: This project is for a website built with a Content Management System (CMS), such as Wordpress, Squarespace, Joomla, Drupal, or Weebly . A CMS-based website can be maintained and updated easily (no coding required!)
Additional details
1. A little background experience working with nonprofit websites will be a plus because we don't want it to feel like a corporate site.
2. We're hoping to optimize our site to be bilingual (Spanish and English) and it would be great to learn more about how that would work and whether or not it can be done during this project!
What we have in place
- We currently have an existing website to draw content from, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have images, updated text, ideas for new content, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $16,822 , allowing us to launch our new logo, reach a new audience, and revive our nonprofit brand.
Our nonprofit organization is currently going through a visual rebrand and we're hoping to launch our new look as soon as our new website is built! We are a 45 year old organization with a website that runs on Drupal, and looking to migrate to Wordpress (open to discussion on this migration).
We have all the language, images, and want to maintain some aspects of our old site but really looking to minimize the content and have an easy-to-use new interface for both our public audience and our backend users (staff).

Our mission
UHAB empowers low- to moderate-income residents to take control of their housing and enhance communities by creating strong tenant associations and lasting affordable co-ops.
What we do
Since its founding in 1973, UHAB has helped form dozens of tenant associations and has guided some 1,600 buildings from distressed rental to affordable housing cooperative, enabling low- to moderate-income residents of more than 30,000 apartments to become co-op homeowners.
Over the years, we have developed an intimate knowledge of New York City’s low-income co-op community. We are experts in meeting the needs of that community. Our work is unmatched by any other organization in its field.
UHAB educates residents of troubled rental buildings on defending their rights and determining whether or not co-op homeownership might be a viable path for them. We hold Introduction to Limited-Equity Co-ops classes for people interested in purchasing units in UHAB’s network of affordable co-ops. And we train residents on the management, maintenance, and financial sustainability of their buildings as well as on protecting affordability and promoting community spirit.
