What it does
Charities and community groups often need a website that explains their cause, collects donations and keeps supporters informed, without hiring a developer. This theme is designed around that work. It comes with layouts and pre-built templates aimed at charities, child protection agencies, foundations and churches. The bundled donation plugin lets you set up multiple causes, take donations on your own site and track fundraising progress, and the theme also covers event management and volunteer sign-up.
Editing happens in Elementor, the drag-and-drop page builder, so you can adjust pages visually and start from pre-made templates. The theme sits on a Bootstrap-based framework and is responsive and retina ready for phones, tablets and desktops. If you want to sell merchandise, WooCommerce support lets you add a shop, and WPML support makes it possible to publish in more than one language. It also works with Gravity Forms, BuddyPress, bbPress, Easy Digital Downloads and WP EasyCart.
