Not For Profit

Posted on Sunday, July 5th, 2009 at 11:15 am

Bizar has a proud history of working along side high profile Australian not-for-profits. We have strong relationships with all of our clients in this field. We take great pride in helping them increase their presence online and assisting them in pursuing their cause.

Our experience tells us that people in this field need to be treated differently from the private sector. Usually the motivation behind their needs are very different, as are the KPI’s surrounding it. We also acknowledge that great care has to be taken with these clients. Often these organisations are heavily reliant on funding from either the private sector or government departments. Getting the message wrong in these sites could potentially cost a non-for-profit large funding.

If you are a charity or non-for-profit we encourage you to contact us to discuss how we can help you with your online needs. Here are some of the charities that we have assisted over the years.

 

sidsBlack
Who?
The National SIDS Council of Australia, trading as SIDS and Kids, is a high-profile and well-respected not-for-profit organisation that boasts an enviable history of success. SIDS and Kids is dedicated to saving babies’ lives through the elimination of sudden and unexpected infant deaths, and supporting bereaved families. We deliver on our vision through world class education, research, evidenced based intervention and advocacy.
It comprises a National Office based in Melbourne and nine Member Organisations (MOs) based in the Northern Territory, Queensland, New South Wales, Hunter Region of NSW, ACT, Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia and Western Australia.

How we’re helping…
Sids and Kids have been a client of Bizar Software for over 5 years. It’s a relationship that has seen many successful outcomes achieved. The familiar charity is responsible for Red Nose Day http://www.rednoseday.com.au/ and we are proud to be involved in this project.
Currently we are working hard behind the scenes to release a new Sids and Kids site. (after 5 years its due for a make-over). So watch this space – we’ll announce the launch of new site when it goes lives in the coming months.

createBlack
Who?
For the past 15 years, CREATE has evolved from a small volunteer driven organisation to a national, professionally staffed one. This growth has enabled CREATE to reach more children and young people in care through program delivery, whilst simultaneously ensuring that their voice is heard by governments and out-of-home care sector stakeholders.
CREATE is governed by a Board of Directors comprising representatives from some of Australia’s largest corporations and, in keeping with the spirit of youth participation, CREATE encourages the membership of young adults with a direct care experience.
CREATE currently employs approximately 30 staff across the country. To ensure national coverage and local representation, CREATE has offices in every state and territory.

How we’re helping…
Create foundation approached us approximately 2 months ago. They were seeking assistance to make some changes to their site. Having been referred to us by SIDS and Kids we were very keen to help them out as best we could. But as often is the case, their previous supplier had decided to trap them in a custom CMS that was like a locked cage. Following internal discusses about their needs going forward, they contracted us to begin building a brand new site for their organisation. Whilst its current made up of many disjointed sites, we are working towards one central site which holds all their content in a neat and understandable manner.  Importantly this site is being built in Word Press.  Meaning they won’t be tied to using any particular developer.  It also gives them the ability to edit their sites content easily without assistance.
