Free widgets for a nonprofit or community site on WordPress

Donations and volunteer sign-ups follow evidence of momentum. A visitor globe showing which countries are paying attention, flags for international support, and a countdown to a campaign deadline are the three signals that make a small organisation look like a movement — and all of them are true numbers.

What you are trying to do here is prove the cause has reach so a donation feels worthwhile. Three widgets below do that; the other 15 in the set mostly do not, so they are not on this page. No plugin. WordPress accepts raw HTML in a Custom HTML block, which is all this needs.

The three worth adding

  1. 01

    live visitor tracker world map

    On WordPress this goes in the post or page itself — it's the most visual widget you have, so it earns a spot in the content rather than the chrome.

  2. 02

    flag counter

    On WordPress this goes in a footer widget area — a ranked country list belongs at the bottom, where its lazy-loaded flags stay below the fold.

  3. 03

    countdown widget

    On WordPress this goes in the post or page itself — a countdown works above the fold on the page that's actually selling the thing.

Where to put them

Globe and flags on the about or impact page; the countdown goes on the donate page, directly above the button.
