144 - Non-Profit Website Accessibility: The Compliance Myth You Need to Drop

Author: David Pisarek September 2, 2026 Duration: 16:29

Join host David Pisarek for a practical deep dive into why website accessibility should be a strategic priority for every non-profit, rather than simply a compliance checkbox.

In this solo episode of the Non-Profit Digital Success Podcast, David breaks down what non-profits need to know about digital accessibility, WCAG 2.2, AODA, and the common barriers that can prevent people from engaging with your organization online.

Discover how to:

- Make your non-profit website more accessible for people using screen readers and keyboards.

- Improve donation forms, alt text, PDFs, videos, and other digital content to create a more inclusive experience.

- Understand why accessibility overlays alone don't solve the underlying accessibility problems on your website.

- Use accessibility to support donor engagement, SEO, AI -search visibility, and long-term digital growth.

David also shares a simple accessibility challenge you can try today to experience your donation process from a completely different perspective.

Whether you're reviewing your current website or planning your next redesign, this episode will help you identify accessibility issues, remove unnecessary barriers, and create a digital experience that allows more people to connect with your mission.

Tune in to "Non-Profit Website Accessibility: The Compliance Myth You Need to Drop" and start building a more accessible, inclusive, and future-ready non-profit website.
