Project Overview

We are seeking assistance in creating a wireframe for a landing page for our nonprofit. The landing page will be informational in nature, but will need an excellent design. We have a detailed content outline ready (1-2 pages); we just need the design expertise! This landing page is crucial for attracting donors, partners, and sponsors, to push our nonprofit's mission to the next level!Our nonprofit addresses a pressing issue of college sports: 74% of college athletes are "walk-ons," individuals who join college sports teams without receiving a full athletic scholarship. These walk-ons face unique challenges, as they must balance the demands of college athletics with academic responsibilities without the financial support provided to their peers. For almost all walk-ons, participating in college sports essentially becomes a full-time job without pay. Despite college sports generating $25 billion in revenue, and even with the emergence of NIL, less than 5% of college athletes benefit from these. This leads to affordability issues, increased dropout rates, and reduced access to higher education. Unfortunately, our team lacks the funds and resources to pay a company to build the wireframe for a landing page, which is crucial for gaining widespread attention and support from potential donors, partners, and sponsors. Your volunteering is essential in advancing our mission and positively impacting the lives of walk-ons!Over the past four months, we have invested over 200 hours building a detailed business plan, laying out the blueprint for our future website. We are fully committed to helping any volunteers and are accessible round the clock to ensure the project's timely completion. Once finished, our focus will shift to developing the landing page itself, and fundraising, aiming to award 16 scholarships at $15,000 each, starting Fall semester 2025. Our future landing page will drive information, engagement, and connection, attracting donors, partners, sponsors, and scholarship applicants to bring our mission, again, to the next level!
