A nonprofit website has to tell a story, build trust and turn interest into action: donations, volunteers and partnerships. With a small team and tight budget, an AI builder can help you launch something professional quickly. Here is how.
What matters most to donors and volunteers
- Mission and impact. Say clearly who you help and show real results, since donors give to outcomes.
- Easy giving. Make the donate button prominent with suggested amounts and monthly options.
- Transparency. Show financials, annual reports and your charity status to build trust.
- Ways to get involved. Offer volunteer, partner and event options.
- Stories. Share real stories and photos that connect people to your cause.
Pages to include on your nonprofit website
- Home. Mission statement, a big Donate button, key impact numbers and a featured story.
- About: mission, history, team and board.
- Programs or what we do.
- Impact and stories.
- Donate, with one-time and monthly giving options.
- Get involved: volunteer, partner, fundraise.
- Transparency: annual reports, financials and your tax status.
- News and Contact.
Donation page basics
- Use a trusted payment platform and link or embed it on the Donate page.
- Suggest giving amounts and what each does.
- Offer monthly giving.
- State your tax-deductibility information clearly.
Set up your nonprofit website with Tuli Builder
- Install the Tuli theme. On a WordPress site with hosting and a domain, install and activate Tuli Builder. New to WordPress? Start with the beginner guide.
- Open the AI Assistant. In your dashboard go to Tuli, then AI Assistant, and pick Tuli AI, which is included with your licence and needs no API key. Prefer your own account? Add an API key from Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini or OpenRouter instead.
- Paste the prompt below. Swap in your real business name, city and services. The assistant lays out the page, drafts the copy and writes clean HTML and CSS.
- Refine visually or by asking. Click any element to restyle it in the style panel, or describe the change to the AI.
- Add your inner pages, then publish. Repeat the process for each page in the list above, replace placeholder text and photos with real ones, and publish.
The best prompt for a nonprofit website

Build a home page for Bright Futures Foundation in Detroit, Michigan, a nonprofit supporting youth education. Hero with a student photo, the headline Every Child Deserves a Chance to Learn, and buttons for Donate Now and Volunteer. Add an impact counter row, a how-your-gift-helps section with three amounts, a stories section, a programmes grid, a transparency block with annual report link and charity status, upcoming events, partner logos, a newsletter signup and a contact footer. Use deep teal, warm yellow and white with an optimistic tone.
Follow-up prompts to refine it

Use Tuli Builder to create it quickly and refine visually.

- Use your city and cause in headings: “Food assistance in Cleveland”.
FAQ
Is a one-time builder price good for nonprofits?
Yes. Recurring fees add up, so a one-time payment from $49 helps keep admin costs low.
Can I accept recurring donations?
Yes, through a donation platform or plugin that supports them.
