FraternalWeb

FraternalWeb gives your club, council, chapter or parish an affordable, beautiful, fast, informative, and easy-to-maintain website.

An example council website built on FraternalWeb
We noticed a specific need: lodges, councils, chapters, parishes, and clubs need a clean, classy website. A place to store history, post events, list member and hall information, public meeting minutes, files, and anything else they desire. It should be a place to represent your group in the community, and inform them of what you do. But it also needs to be dead simple to design, manage, and update, so that it can be passed down and remain active through generations of your group.

Use your own domain for your emails

If your own domain is hosted on Cloudflare, a simple integration makes setting up e-mail mappings using that domain easy. If your domain isn't on Cloudflare, it's easy and free to transfer it there.

Members-only backend

Your website comes with a members' backend where members-only files, events, and other information can be accessed. Add members to your backend by sending an invite to their e-mail. Log in with an e-mail address or Google account.

Create and assign people to roles

Just like your organization, you can create roles in your backend to keep duties, backend privileges, contact points, and the public-facing roster organized. Assign a role to an e-mail mapping, and whoever has that role will receive the e-mail.

1We say zero risk here because we do not use passwords at all. Your account is thus only as secure as your e-mail account is. Although we have some security measures in place to detect and block suspicious logins, a malicious actor could gain access to your site's backend if they gain access to your email account (e.g. if your email account is not secure). An example of a non-secure email account is one that uses an easily guessable password, a password that you use across multiple sites, or a password that has been leaked in a data breach.
2We say 'for free' because we believe that the free tiers offered by these two third-party service providers (SMTP2GO and Brevo) are each separately sufficient for the average site's e-mail distribution needs. A site can always choose to purchase a paid plan with either one of these providers if their needs exceed what is offered in their free plan. There is no extra cost from FraternalWeb itself to enable these integrations.
