Supporting community initiatives

Ever since its development in 2004, First Stop Web Design has committed to donating a percentage of its net income to good causes. 


These tend to be small grassroots charities, enterprises and small businesses with social impact.

See some examples

Together with our parent group, we have supported the development of a number of initiatives managed directly or in partnership with others.


We encourage these agencies to collaborate and / or support each others services.
