REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS


Web Designer for Site Build-Out, Accessibility Updates, and Regular Maintenance


Willie Mae Rock Camp for Girls Inc. (Willie Mae Rock Camp) is seeking web designer services for website build-out, updates, and ongoing maintenance of our existing organizational website: williemaerockcamp.org. We are seeking proposals from web designers with experience working with the Squarespace platform.


Willie Mae Rock Camp is a 501(c)(3) organization that provides arts education programming fusing music, technology, and STEM to empower girls and gender-expansive youth across New York City to develop their creative voices while building tech-based skills to support their future success. We provide tuition-free, year-round programs including in-school music education for grades 6-12, summer and school break project-based camps, after-school programming, and workshops at our Brooklyn studio and at partner sites throughout New York City.


Our website is hosted on Squarespace version 7.1 and primarily used for providing information about our mission, programs, staff, and organization; program enrollment information; student work archives; hosting our annual impact report; and donation information and online donation forms. Any website updates should be consistent with our existing visual style, fonts, and color palette. 


We are a small but growing organization. Proposed changes and updates to our website should be adaptable and scalable over time as we continue to grow.


PROJECT SCOPE


Our organization requests proposals to provide the following services. Dates are noted for projects with specific timelines for completion.


We hope to begin work in August 2025.
