A nonprofit website designed to turn neighbors into volunteers

1. 01

   Set like a neighborhood paper

   A serif front-page headline, cobalt rules, a yellow editorial column and a documentary photograph make the page read like a local paper, which fits an organization run by neighbors. The photograph is of people at a table, doing the work.

2. 02

   The first ask is a workday

   The primary button invites people to the next workday. For a community project the first step is showing up, so the page leads with participation and leaves giving to a second conversation.

3. 03

   Programs open in place

   Block tables, youth workshops and garden days are 3 disclosure rows with a one-line description each. A visitor opens the one they care about, and the rest stays folded.

   Field notes give the organization a voice

   An edition picker swaps between 3 short notes, each with a title and a line. It shows what the group notices and values, and that is what turns a curious neighbor into someone who comes back.

• What you do, where and for whom, in 2 sentences at the top
• Programs with how to take part in each
• Upcoming workdays or events with dates kept current
• Who runs it: board, staff or neighbors, with names
• A donate path through a payment provider you choose; the site links to it
• A volunteer interest form that asks for a name, a way to reply and which program
