Helping Non-for-Profits Grow Digitally

Specializing In NonProfit Marketing Solutions

The digital divide, from the inside

Running a nonprofit — and still the IT department and the marketing team?

Nobody started a nonprofit to manage laptops and ad accounts. But somebody has to, and it usually lands on whoever is least able to say no.

  • ?End-of-life donated laptops running outdated software that has not been security patched in years — and no budget line to replace them.
  • ?Donor records and banking correspondence sitting in a personal email account, because it was free and it worked.
  • ?The people you exist to serve cannot find you online — and paid advertising has never been in reach.
  • ?Trying to attract sponsors beyond the annual event, and donors beyond the same list you have worked for years.
What Redefine Logic actually is

We are the digital department
you cannot afford to hire.

Marketing that gets you found. Cybersecurity that keeps you standing. And the funding and software you already qualify for — claimed, configured and managed for you. One team, nonprofit rates, no enterprise overhead.

What we actually do

Two halves of the same job.

Everything on this page is one of these two things. That is the whole model.

GROW

Help more people find you

Free advertising funding, search visibility, and a website that tells your community what you do — so the people who need you actually arrive.

PROTECT

Keep it standing once they do

Current equipment, proper accounts, tested backups and a plan — so a bad morning does not take your programs offline.

Growth without protection just means more to lose. Protection without growth means nobody finds you anyway. You need both, and most nonprofits are only offered one.

1Start with what is already free

Before you spend a dollar,
claim what you qualify for.

There is real funding and free software sitting unclaimed by Canadian nonprofits every year. The programs are not hidden — they are just administratively tedious, and nobody on your team has the hours. That part we handle.

What most small nonprofits spend on advertising$0 – $500/mo
What the Google Ad Grant provides, free$10,000/mo
$120,000 per year in search advertising

The honest version: the Grant is restricted to Google search ads, carries ongoing compliance rules, and accounts get suspended when those rules slip — which is why so many nonprofits claim it once and quietly lose it. Managed properly it runs indefinitely. That management is the actual service.

$10,000 / MONTH

Google Ad Grant

Free search advertising for qualified charities. We handle eligibility, campaign build, and the compliance work that keeps it active.

FREE LICENCES

Google for Nonprofits

Workspace for email, documents and shared drives — on your own domain, with admin control you actually own.

FREE & DISCOUNTED

Microsoft 365 Nonprofit

Donated and discounted licensing, including the security features that are normally the first thing cut from a budget.

DISCOUNTED HARDWARE

TechSoup Canada

Discounted software and refurbished equipment — the practical route off end-of-life machines without a capital campaign.

Here is the part nobody mentions when they set up your ads:
everything you just switched on is now something that can be taken.

More traffic means more donor data. New accounts mean new doors. That is not a reason to slow down — it is the reason the next step exists.

2Then close the gaps underneath

Digital hygiene, in plain language.

No jargon, no scare tactics, no enterprise price tag. These are the specific things we find in community organizations over and over — and each one has a fix that costs attention more than money.

THE BIGGEST GAP

Equipment past end-of-life

The donated laptop running an operating system that stopped receiving security updates years ago. Every flaw discovered since then stays open on it permanently — and no antivirus closes that.

We inventory what you have, flag what is unsupported, and find replacement paths through nonprofit hardware programs.
MOST COMMON

Running on a free email account

Personal Gmail or a shared inbox holding donor records and banking correspondence. No admin control, no way to revoke access when someone leaves, no recovery if it is taken.

We move you to proper nonprofit accounts on your own domain — free through Google or Microsoft — without losing a message.

One password between everyone

Shared logins that walk out the door with every departing staff member, volunteer or board member.

Two-step verification, a password manager your team will actually use, and a ten-minute offboarding checklist.

Backups nobody has tested

A cloud folder that syncs is not a backup — it faithfully copies the damage. A backup nobody has restored from is a hypothesis.

One copy somewhere ransomware cannot reach, and one occasion where we actually restore a file so you know it works.

No plan for the bad morning

Who do you call, what do you shut off, and what do you tell your funders, your board and the families waiting on a program?

A one-page incident plan, written before you need it. The cheapest thing on this list by a distance.

Staff and volunteers left guessing

Most incidents start with someone clicking something reasonable-looking on a busy day.

Short, practical sessions on what real attempts look like. Insurers increasingly require it.

And none of it matters if the people you serve
still cannot find the information they need.

Cost-recovery website builds

Clear information, for communities
who are usually the last to get it.

Co-ops, housing communities and member organizations often run on paper notices and word of mouth. We build them real websites and member portals at cost recovery — so the information reaches everyone, not just whoever happened to be at the meeting.

By-De-Molen Co-operative Homes

Brampton member-driven housing community. Members Portal, parking administration, and a plain-language explainer of what a co-op actually is — the question every prospective member asks first.

Chegoggin Co-operative Homes

Affordable housing serving families in Brampton — The Flower City. Member Portal, contact routing, and a Quick Exit control on every page for residents who need to leave the site immediately and safely.

What cost recovery actually means

We charge what the build costs us to deliver — hosting, licences, the hours — and nothing on top. It is not a discount we advertise and quietly claw back elsewhere, and it is not free work we resent halfway through.

Why we do it: a co-op board or a small charity should not have to choose between a working website and a program budget. Accessible information is not a premium feature — it is the whole point of being a community organization.

3How this actually starts

No audit fee. No commitment.

We are not going to sell you a security program in the first conversation. We will tell you what we see and what we would fix first — including the parts you can do yourself for free.

STEP ONE

A 30-minute conversation

What you run on, who has access, and where the people you serve are getting stuck. No technical vocabulary required.

STEP TWO

A plain-language summary

What you qualify for, what is exposed, and the order we would tackle it in — written so you can take it to a board meeting.

STEP THREE

You decide what, if anything

Some organizations take the free programs and handle the rest themselves. That is a legitimate outcome and we will say so.

Proudly Canadian · Serving nonprofits, charities and co-ops across Canada, and internationally on request

We are a non-for-profit and we started working with Redefine Logic last year for our existing Google Grant campaign we had for the last 10 years. With years of others working on it, it was not performing as well and needed major organizing. Redefine Logic rebuilt our campaign and corrected the errors. Within the last 6 months of Michael and his team working on our campaign, we have experience 10 times the results compared to previous years. They also helped with us dealing with any Google issues swiftly. For any business or non-for-profit, Highly recommended!!
