Non-profit Web Hosting

About the plan

Acorn Host is committed to serving the non-profit community by offering affordable web hosting to organizations that have a small budget to get online.

Our non-profit web hosting plan has the same features as our regular plans, but is half the size and price of the lowest regular plan.

This lets small non-profits get a professional-level hosting package without purchasing more space than they need.

Who qualifies?

This special plan is reserved for sites that have a public service mission, such as homeless shelters, environmental groups, health advocacy groups, etc, who would otherwise be unable to afford web hosting.
  • Are you a non-profit, social service agency, or school?
  • Is your organization's mission to serve the public good?
  • Can your organization not afford the regular web hosting rates?
If you can answer yes to all three of the above questions, than you qualify for the non-profit rate. 501(c)(3) status is not required.

Who does not qualify?

Sites that are for personal use, hobby groups, and other organizations that do not have a public service component do not qualify. While these sites may not "make a profit", they do not qualify as "non-profit" for the purpose of this plan. This plan is for those serving the public good, who otherwise would not be able to afford quality web hosting.

FAQ

QuestionHow long does it take to set up new accounts?
Generally, new accounts are set up in a few business hours from receiving payment. Once your account is activated, you will be sent an email with your account login information. If you do not receive this within 24 hours of signing up (unless you paid by check), please contact us.

QuestionWhere do I purchase a domain name?
You will need to register a domain name with a domain name registrar in order to use our hosting. If you haven't purchased one already, we suggest finding a reliable registrar through seeking recommendations from colleagues. Expect to pay around $10 per year for your domain name.

Our recommendations are:
DynaDot - based in California (USA) - our referral code is 7A8N7S6v6i8G7jW
Gandi - based in France

They both come highly recommended and have good customer service records.

Testimonials

I subscribed to your webhosting and I must say I was surprised at the speed I had my page published! Congratulations on the great service!
T.V.

WOW! Can I give you some feedback? I have a technical mind (use to work in telecom) but never was much of an IT gal. I cannot believe how easy that was! Your website was simple, easy to follow and I LOVE that I can just fill it out online and get it done right now. I have a busy schedule and can't always catch up with people over the phone. This really worked well for me and I'm totally excited about how easy it is to manage.
