Alleviate Sites is a web-based website builder designed for NGOs that want to create a professional site without hiring designers or developers or relying on technical skills. Organizations can build for free and pay when they publish; a credit card is not required to build. Customizable nonprofit templates offer sections for programs, impact statistics, team biographies, donations, contact information, events, news, and photo galleries. Alleviate's platform can also build an organization's digital presence from its platform data, including program pages, impact statistics, team information, and domain setup. Website Publishing makes the site live on the internet with a custom domain. At 99.00 USD per year, it includes an SSL certificate, unlimited page views, and the ability to update content yourself at any time. Domain + Full Setup starts at 39.00 USD per year and covers domain registration, DNS and hosting setup, and SSL and security configuration. Country domains including .gh, .ke, and .ng are available. Separate Professional Email Hosting plans provide addresses matching the organization's domain, with options for up to 5, 10, or 20 addresses. Alleviate Sites is headquartered in Washington, DC, United States.
