  • 63 scholars

    Each with their own profile

  • 7 boreholes

    Before and after, place by place

  • US + Ghana

    Two ways to give by bank transfer

Relief and Aid International is a Ghanaian NGO, founded in Accra in 2020, that pays full university fees for brilliant but needy students, builds boreholes for communities without safe water and cares for elderly people every month. We rebuilt its website from WordPress into a fast, modern site its own team runs.

Challenge: giving from far away takes trust

Many of Relief and Aid's donors live outside Ghana. Before they give, they want to see who the charity is, what it has already done and exactly where the money goes.

The old WordPress site held years of scholarships, projects, news and photo albums, but it was slow, hard to update and didn't tell that story. The team needed to keep everything and publish new work themselves.

Solution: every gift traced to a person or a place

Proof on every page

Each scholar has a profile with their course, college and graduation year. Each borehole shows the community, what people drank before and what they have now. Patrons are named.

Giving made simple

A donate page with the US and Ghana bank accounts side by side, one-tap copy for account numbers, and a quick way to tell the team a gift has been sent so they can say thank you.

A staff area for everything

Scholars, projects, news, events, photo albums, videos and patrons are all edited by the team in a simple admin. Years of content moved across from WordPress, nothing lost.
