Your website should help people quickly understand your mission, find services, give, volunteer, register, and know what to do next. Behind the scenes, your team should have practical tools that make the work easier to manage.
I build both: professional nonprofit websites for the people you serve and the supporters who make the mission possible, along with custom systems for the staff, leadership, and processes working behind the scenes.
A strong nonprofit website should clearly explain who you are, who you serve, and why the work matters while making important actions simple for visitors to complete.
I build around your mission, programs, audience, content, and goals with responsive design and a strong foundation for search visibility from the start.
Explore Nonprofit Website DesignIf your staff is relying on spreadsheets, paper forms, email chains, repetitive data entry, or software that does not fit the way your organization works, there may be a better approach.
I build practical custom systems around the process you actually need, from one focused internal tool to larger platforms used across an organization.
Explore Custom Nonprofit SystemsI build nonprofit websites around the information people need, the actions you want them to take, and a strong foundation for search visibility.
Someone may come to your website to find help, understand a program, make a donation, volunteer, register for an event, complete a form, or simply learn more about your organization.
The website should make those paths clear without unnecessary searching, confusing navigation, or extra steps.
When spreadsheets, paper forms, disconnected software, or repetitive processes start getting in the way, I can build a system around the way your organization actually works.
You do not need to know what kind of software you need. Show me what your staff is doing now, where information gets lost, what takes too much time, or what you wish worked better.
The solution might be one focused internal tool or a larger nonprofit management system. The goal is the same: make the work easier to manage and the information easier to understand.
Every organization works differently. Here are a few examples of websites and custom systems built around real audiences, programs, staff needs, and day-to-day operations.
A mission-focused website supported by custom systems for resident management, vouchers, credits, scheduling, reporting, forms, documents, and other day-to-day operational needs.

For organizations serving a specific community, location matters. Your website should make programs, services, locations, and service areas clear to both visitors and search engines.
That can include local content, thoughtful internal linking, location-focused pages, and a strong SEO foundation built around the communities you actually serve. The same strategy and organization-first approach also works for nonprofits anywhere in the country.
Some projects have a clear starting point. Others depend on the scope. Either way, we define what you need first so you know the price before the work begins.
From a focused nonprofit website to a larger custom build, pricing grows with the actual scope of the project.
A focused tracking tool and a full multi-user management platform are very different builds. The price should reflect what the system actually needs to do.
Ongoing care so your staff does not have to manage the technical side of keeping your website secure, backed up, updated, and running properly.
Qualifying nonprofit organizations may receive up to 25% off standard project pricing on eligible website, custom system, and other project work. Extended payment options may also be available on larger eligible projects.
You do not need a finished plan or technical specification. We start with what needs to work better and build from there.
Talk through your audience, staff, goals, current tools, pain points, and what needs to work better.
Define the right approach, project scope, important features, pricing, timeline, and integrations before work begins.
Build around the people who will actually use it, then test the important paths, functions, and screen sizes.
Put the website or system to work with ongoing care, maintenance, updates, and support available when needed.
I work with you throughout the project, so the person learning about your organization and understanding the problem is also the person planning and building the solution.
Your website may be the part the public sees, but your mission depends on people, processes, information, decisions, and day-to-day work happening behind it.
I’m Chris Hughes, founder of Catalyst Web Co. For more than 20 years, I’ve been an entrepreneur, business owner, and organizational leader. My MBA education and executive leadership experience also shape the way I approach every project.
When I work with a nonprofit, I am not only thinking about colors, pages, and layouts. I am thinking about the people you serve, the supporters you depend on, the staff doing the work, the information leadership needs, and the processes that keep the organization moving.
That broader perspective helps me look at the whole picture. Sometimes the biggest need is a clearer website. Sometimes it is a custom internal system. Sometimes one public form or process reveals a much bigger opportunity to make the work easier behind the scenes.
You do not need to know exactly what you need before reaching out. These are some of the questions that commonly come up when nonprofits, churches, schools, ministries, and other mission-driven organizations are considering a new website, custom system, or both.
I build professional nonprofit websites along with custom systems such as staff portals, client or resident management platforms, scheduling tools, dashboards, reporting systems, tracking tools, forms, document systems, workflows, and other internal tools.
The goal is not to sell you a particular type of technology. It is to understand what your organization needs and build the solution that makes the most sense.
No. A custom system can be completely separate from your public website.
If your website is working well but your team needs a better way to manage scheduling, records, reporting, clients, volunteers, services, documents, or another internal process, I can build that without replacing the website.
Standard streamlined website projects can start around $1,999.
Most fully custom nonprofit websites begin around $3,000, while larger strategic builds can move into the $5,000–$10,000+ range depending on content, giving tools, forms, integrations, search strategy, programs, functionality, and overall scope.
Qualifying nonprofits may also receive up to 25% off standard project pricing on eligible work.
Custom systems are priced by scope because a focused tracking tool and a full multi-user nonprofit management platform are very different projects.
Pricing depends on things like users and permissions, workflows, records, documents, dashboards, reporting, CSV exports, alerts, automation, integrations, and the overall complexity of the system.
We define what the system needs to accomplish first. Once the scope is clear, you receive a clear project price before development begins.
Yes. Qualifying nonprofit organizations may receive up to 25% off standard project pricing on eligible website, custom system, and other project work.
The exact discount depends on the project, scope, and organization.
On eligible projects, the project investment may be split into monthly payments for up to 12 months when paired with an ongoing monthly maintenance or support plan.
This can make a larger nonprofit website or custom system easier to budget without removing important features simply to reduce the upfront cost.
Yes. Every website starts with a strong SEO foundation, including clear site structure, organized content, meaningful headings, metadata, internal linking, mobile usability, and other foundational elements that help search engines understand your organization.
For nonprofits serving Melbourne, Palm Bay, West Melbourne, or other areas of Brevard County, we can also build around local programs, locations, services, and geographic relevance.
No one can responsibly guarantee a specific Google ranking, but the site can be built on a strong foundation for search visibility.
Sometimes. If your current website or system has a solid foundation, it may make sense to improve what is already there.
That could mean reorganizing content, improving design, strengthening search structure, adding forms or integrations, improving workflows, or building new tools around an existing system.
If the current setup creates more limitations than value, I will explain why a rebuild may make more sense before you commit to anything.
Yes. I can help simplify donation paths, recurring-gift options, volunteer forms, event registrations, applications, service requests, and other important actions.
The focus is on making each step clear and easy to complete while connecting the information to the tools your organization already uses when appropriate.
Yes. Websites and systems are designed responsively for phones, tablets, standard laptops, larger laptops, and desktop displays.
The goal is not simply to shrink a desktop design. Layouts, navigation, forms, spacing, and typography are adjusted so the experience makes sense on the device being used.
Yes. If your staff wants to handle routine updates such as changing text, swapping photos, or posting announcements, training can be provided.
Many organizations prefer to have me handle ongoing changes so their staff can stay focused on the mission. Managed Website Care plans are available for hosting, security, backups, maintenance, updates, reporting, and ongoing support.
Streamlined website projects can often be completed in roughly 1–2 weeks, while more involved custom websites commonly take 2–4 weeks or longer depending on content, integrations, and scope.
Custom systems vary more because the project may range from one focused internal tool to a larger platform with multiple users, workflows, reports, permissions, and integrations.
You receive a clear expected timeline as part of the project scope.
Yes. Managed Website Care starts at $99 per month and can include hosting, security, backups, monitoring, maintenance, website updates, reporting, and priority support depending on the plan.
Custom monthly care plans can also be built for organizations that need more ongoing support, such as additional update time, SEO work, content, reporting, integrations, or multi-site needs.
Ongoing maintenance and support for custom systems can also be structured around the size and complexity of the system.
No. Catalyst Web Co is based in Brevard County, Florida and works with organizations in Melbourne, Palm Bay, West Melbourne, and throughout the surrounding area.
