🚧 OrgReach: Building Something Bigger

🛠 Where We Are Now

OrgReach is just getting started—but we’re dreaming big.

  • ✅ Secured our domains: OrgReach.org, OrgReach.com, and OrgReach.tv

  • ✅ Established a clear mission and created foundational bylaws

  • ✅ Launched early design prototypes on WordPress

  • ✅ Drafted our platform architecture and development roadmap

  • ✅ Begun outreach for partnerships, grants, and early supporters

But we’re being real:
We haven’t filed our 501(c)(3) status yet. We don’t have funding. And we’re not hiding that.

What we do have?
A bold vision, serious tech experience, and a deep commitment to building a tool the nonprofit world actually needs.

🎯 Our Mission

To empower mission-driven organizations, small nonprofits, and aligned creators with ad-free, accessible tools to stream content, build community, and stay independent from algorithmic control and surveillance capitalism.

🧱 Phase One: Laying the Foundation (Now → Q4 2025)

Milestone Status Details
TLD Ownership ✅ Complete org / com / tv reserved for strategic use
Mission & Bylaws ✅ Complete Legal and structural groundwork established
Nonprofit Filing ⏳ In Progress Preparing 501(c)(3) filing for federal recognition
Site MVP (WordPress) 🔄 Building Basic site built with Elementor, JetEngine, and WSForms
Branding & Messaging ✅ Core Done Logo, mission statement, and pitch messaging
Funding & Grants 🚧 Prepping Seeking grant writers, donors, and fiscal sponsors

🔭 Phase Two: Platform Buildout (Q1 2026 → Q2 2027)

Component Plan
Custom Channel Pages Welcome video, stream archive, events, bulletin board
Smart TV App (Lightning SDK) Roku deferred, focus on web + TV (Bunny.net CDN)
Org Admin Dashboard No-code interface to manage content and channel presence
Interest-Based Filtering LGBTQIA+, civic, faith-based, etc.—only see what you care about
Document + Video Sync Docs (e.g., hymnals, event flyers) overlay while audio continues
Accessibility MVP Captions first; AI narration + scene description in roadmap
Social Tools (No Comment Threads) Posts, FAQs, updates with private messages only

🧩 Our Tech Stack (Planned)

  • Frontend: WordPress (Elementor + JetEngine), eventually decoupled Vue/React interface
  • Backend: PHP (initial), Node.js or Laravel (future), RESTful APIs
  • Media Delivery: Bunny.net for global CDN
  • Smart TV: Lightning SDK (webOS, Tizen), optional Roku later
  • Hosting: DreamHost now; scaling to Google Cloud when ready
