Placement Overview (Remote)

We’re looking for a student who can help manage and maintain our website and assist with building our membership perks app for YBIB program participants and community members.

• Support integrations (email signups, donation forms, applications, analytics)

2) Membership App Development (build + iterate)

• Help define what the membership app includes (access rules, tiers, perks, content)
• Recommend the best build approach (no-code tools like Lovable or alternatives, or another approach you believe fits best)
• Build an MVP version (member login, perks/offers, announcements, resources, event access)
• Test, gather feedback, and improve the app over time

Deliverables (what success looks like)

• A simple website update workflow + checklist (so it’s easy to maintain)
