NativeHQ present the Safe Foundation’s new website. Built on WordPress, the site gives the charity the capacity to operate online.
The Safe Foundation are a Cardiff-based charity that raises funds for small community projects overseas. They organise fundraising balls, parties and other events in the UK, getting contributions from their networks for communities they connect with directly.
Their new website provides them with a platform for operating online:
- A latest news blog with RSS feed
- Profiles of the projects they work with
- An events calender for their fundraising events
- A donation page where you can donate via PayPal, using Chipin
- A Flickr group gallery for their photos
- A cideo channel
The site is built in WordPress, giving the Foundation an awesome open source platform that is infinitely extendable.

For their first online fundraising effort, the Safe ladies are raising money to send a Flip Camcorder to the kids they work with in Sierra Leone. They only need $125 (about $90), so why not give them a big welcome to the web by Chipping into their fund?
UPDATE: It took then 1.5 hours to raise $125! So the Safe Foundation are going to raise another $450 for Flip cams for the kids they work with in India, Ghana and Uganda too!
We are part of a small group of people who are developing a school and helping to build a community deep in the bush in Uganda. I read about you in the Western Mail and was interested in your experiences.Although it can be difficult, the work you are doing is so rewarding and I would like to encourage you.If there is anything you could help us with, anyone you could direct us to we would be grateful.Thank you for the time and effort you are putting into Uganda.
Hi Judith. Thanks for the comment, but we just did their website. You can get hold of the SAFE crew at http://www.thesafefoundation.co.uk
