ABOUT GIVEBACK DC

Founded by The Web Development Group (WDG), GiveBack DC is in its second year of focusing top talent in the creative community on helping local nonprofits in need of an online brand boost.

This year, we're shaking things up and taking GIVING BACK to a whole new level.

  • 4NONPROFITS IN NEED
  • 4TOP CREATIVE WEB AGENCIES
  • 4FLY NEW WEB EXPERIENCES

We're pairing up each of the 4 selected nonprofits with a top-notch DC web agency to work together in building a stellar new online brand presence for the nonprofit. Each agency will have 30 days to do their thing and get their paired nonprofit rocking out on a stronger, redesigned website. These new sites will be powered by either WordPress or Drupal, giving the nonprofits an amazing content management system to support their brand spanking new look.

With the unbelievable talent of Free Range, nclud, Threespot, and WDG, this year's GiveBack DC is going to be a party you won't want to miss!
