Importance of a website
• Does it work for you?• Shares your culture• Connects you to people• A major resource• How it should be used
A website works for you• A website is like having a street
address. It says: – Where we are– Who we are– What we have to offer you
• Open 24/7 and always available.• Is able to provide information to
people who are in need when you’re not available.
Shares your culture• Your website should reflect and explain your
culture. • People should be able to go to your website
and instantly recognize you and what you do.• Creates a welcoming and friendly presence
before meeting in person.
Connects you to people• Keeps people updated with what’s going on.• Allows people to find you and contact you.• Reach a few or thousands with newsletters & emails.• Share success stories and inspire people.
A website is a major resource• Provides downloadable documentation to
people who are in need.• Has the ability to securely receive donations
and create fundraisers.• Links chaplains to other chaplains and
chaplaincies, to other agencies and departments.
How to use your website• Keep content fresh and updated
weekly or at a minimum monthly.– Blog– News– Events– Video or audio
• Keep everything clean and neat so things are easy to find. Clutter will turn people away.
