Launch a Nonprofit, School, or Church Website in Hours with Os.pro

Community-based organizations — whether a nonprofit, school, or church — need more than just an online presence.
They need a platform that informs, inspires, and mobilizes their members and supporters.

With Os.pro, you can launch such a website in hours — complete with donation links, event listings, newsletters, and photo galleries — all managed via your Omnistack API.

Best part? You don’t need to create or maintain a database. Every frontend site automatically connects to your Omnistack API, and can later be switched to your Os.ext.api URL when needed.

???? Step 1: Choose the Right Template

Os.pro includes three community-focused layouts pre-built for common use cases:

1. Nonprofit Template

Perfect for: NGOs, advocacy groups, charities.

Features:

Hero section with mission statement and CTA (“Donate Now”).
“Our Programs” section populated from your API’s /collections/programs.
Blog/News updates pulled from /posts.
Donation button connected to your payment link or Omnistack form endpoint.

'ACTIVE_THEME' => 'nonprofit'

???? Add a “Volunteer Signup” form connected to your /forms/volunteer endpoint to capture supporter info directly.

2. School Template

Perfect for: academies, learning centers, and training institutions.

Features:

Homepage with an academic-style header and announcement ticker.
“Courses” or “Departments” section linked to /collections/courses.
Photo gallery and staff directory from Omnistack collections.
Integrated contact and inquiry form.

'ACTIVE_THEME' => 'school'

???? You can rename “Courses” to “Programs” or “Classes” in /config/menus.php.

3. Church Template

Perfect for: churches, ministries, and faith-based communities.

Features:

Weekly sermon listing connected to /posts?category=sermons.
Events calendar fetched from /collections/events.
Donation/Partnership button that links to your payment endpoint.
“Join Us” form for new members or groups.

'ACTIVE_THEME' => 'church'

?? Customize colors, fonts, and imagery in /config/theme.php to reflect your ministry identity.

???? Step 2: Configure Your Branding

Every template supports full rebranding directly from the config file.
Update your name, tagline, and color theme:

'SITE_NAME' => 'GracePoint Church', 'TAGLINE' => 'Building Faith. Inspiring Hope.', 'PRIMARY_COLOR' => '#6B46C1'

Add your logo and favicon inside /public/assets/images/, then reload — your new brand identity is live.

???? Step 3: Populate Your Content

All data — posts, collections, forms — are fetched from your Omnistack API.
Here’s what to do from your Omnistack dashboard:

Add collections such as Programs, Events, Courses, or Staff.
Create posts under categories like News, Updates, or Sermons.
Configure any forms (e.g. Contact, Volunteer, Join-Us).

The Os.pro frontend will automatically fetch and display the latest data through your API connection.

???? No database setup required. Everything runs from your Omnistack account by default.

?? Step 4: Enable Donations or Payments

Each template supports a simple donation or payment form.
You can:

Link directly to a payment processor like Paystack, Stripe, or Flutterwave.
Or use Omnistack’s /forms/donate endpoint for tracking.

Simply edit the donate button in your active theme’s header.blade.php or equivalent template file.

???? Step 5: Announce Events & Grow Your Community

Event listings automatically sync with your API’s /collections/events.
You can add upcoming meetings, classes, or worship sessions right from your Omnistack dashboard — and they’ll appear instantly on your website.

???? Optional: Add iCal or Google Calendar embed codes for additional integration.

???? Step 6: Publish and Share

When your content is ready:

Map your domain and SSL.
Add your social links in /config/socials.php.
Announce your launch on WhatsApp or Facebook Groups.

Your site is now fully live, backed by Omnistack’s API — with all dynamic content and forms centrally managed.

???? Wrap-Up

Whether you’re building for a nonprofit, school, or church, Os.pro gives you a fast, flexible, and elegant starting point — without the maintenance burden of traditional CMS platforms.

Launch in hours, update content from one dashboard, and scale your digital presence confidently.
