RiSE Nonprofit Site Template provides a pre-built, reusable site configuration for nonprofit and non-governmental organizations to rapidly launch a new, fully functional, and branded nonprofit website. When you select this template during site creation, Acquia Source CMS creates the new site based on the content, configuration, media, and theme of the template. After creation, you can customize all elements to align with organizational requirements.
Key features and included pages
RiSE Nonprofit Site Template includes pre-built layouts tailored to common nonprofit user journeys. The demo site represents a grassroots nonprofit organization that supports children in under-resourced communities through education, nutrition, healthcare, and sports programs, and includes the following sections:
- Homepage: Introduces the mission of the organization and contains impact metrics, core program pillars, an interactive global presence map, success stories, accreditations, corporate partners, and frequently asked questions.
- About: Describes the history of the organization through a milestone timeline, a photo gallery of past activities, and an overview of financial performance.
- Campaigns: Contains details for active fundraiser campaigns with funding progress and targets, a breakdown of how donations distribute across education, nutrition, and clinical support, and information for corporate partners.
- Media: Contains news articles, press coverage, and social media recognition of the work of the organization.
- Contact: Provides an inquiry form with categories for partnerships, press, volunteer work, audit records, and general questions.
- Contribute: Provides a donation form that enables contributors to give anonymously or to a specific campaign.
Benefits
The RiSE Nonprofit Site Template offers several advantages:
- Accelerated launch time: Reduces time and effort because teams do not build sites from scratch.
- Industry-specific architecture: Provides a ready-to-use foundation with nonprofit-specific page structures, content types, and layouts.
- Consistent brand standards: Maintains brand standards and best practices in all new sites.
Important considerations
Before you deploy RiSE Nonprofit Site Template, consider the following:
- Static snapshot: This template provides a static initial snapshot and does not continuously synchronize with updates made to the live demo site.
- Educational tool: Helps teams understand the possibilities and capabilities of Drupal Canvas.
- Base for customization: Functions as an architectural head start rather than a final, out-of-the-box turnkey solution.
- Placeholder content: All watermarked images in the initial installation serve as demonstration placeholders. You must replace these elements with verified organizational assets.
- Payment integration: Contains a sample donation form that does not connect to a payment processor. You must integrate and configure a payment solution before you accept contributions.
