Charitas PRO WordPress Theme

A Charity Organization WordPress Theme for Foundations and Community Groups

Charitas PRO is a charity organization WordPress theme by WPlook for charities, foundations and community organizations. It suits small teams that have to explain causes, show projects and take donations without hiring a developer. Causes, events, projects, staff, galleries, publications and pledges each get their own section, and one-time PayPal donations come with progress tracking. It also has 18 widget areas and WooCommerce support. More than 5,000 organizations use Charitas, and a free version, Charitas Lite, is available on WordPress.org.

The theme is retina-ready, fully responsive, and optimized for speed. Your website looks clean and professional on a phone, tablet, or desktop. The SEO-friendly code helps search engines find your nonprofit, and the built-in donation system lets you start collecting contributions from day one.

Smart Features

Here’s what Charitas PRO includes for nonprofit organizations:

Raise Money for Your Causes

Fundraising is the backbone of every nonprofit website. Charitas PRO makes it simple to create donation campaigns for specific causes, each with its own fundraising goal, description, and visual progress bar. Visitors can contribute through PayPal in a few clicks, without filling in a long form.

Every donation updates the progress bar automatically, giving supporters a real-time view of their collective impact. You receive instant notifications for each transaction, and you can also enter offline donations manually to keep your records accurate. Use it to fund a community project, cover operating costs, or raise money for a specific initiative. Charitas PRO gives you a professional fundraising system without third-party platform fees.

Showcase Your Projects and Impact

Show your community what their support makes possible. The Projects section lets you display ongoing and completed initiatives in a clean, organized layout. Each project gets its own dedicated page where you can share details, timelines, photos, and status updates.

Organize projects by status (active, completed, or upcoming) and include start and end dates so visitors always know where things stand. It’s a simple way to build trust with donors. When people can see the tangible results of their contributions, they are far more likely to give again and recommend your organization to others.

Introduce Your Team and Staff

People connect with people, not logos. The Staff section lets you introduce your leadership, board members, volunteers, and team with professional profiles. Group staff by category, such as Management, Volunteers, Accounting or Field Team, to match your organization’s structure.

Each profile can include a photo, job title, bio, and contact information. Putting real faces on your website builds trust and helps visitors feel connected to the people behind your mission before they ever reach out or make a donation.

Sell Online with WooCommerce

Donations are essential, but they are not always enough to sustain daily operations. Charitas PRO integrates fully with WooCommerce, letting you set up an online store to sell merchandise, books, event tickets, branded products, or digital downloads directly from your website.

WooCommerce handles payments, shipping, and inventory management so you can focus on your mission. For nonprofits looking to diversify their revenue streams, an online store can bring in steady income alongside your fundraising campaigns.

Publish Documents, Reports, and Newsletters

Share important materials directly from your website. Charitas PRO includes a dedicated Documents section where you can publish annual reports, newsletters, flyers, impact studies, and books. Upload files as PDFs, eBooks, or zip archives, and let visitors download or read them right on the page.

For nonprofits that publish annual impact reports, financial transparency documents, or educational materials, this feature makes your work accessible and easy to share. Visitors can forward documents to their networks directly from your website, extending your reach beyond your existing audience.

Donation Dashboard and Reporting

Stay on top of your fundraising with the built-in donation dashboard. Right in your WordPress admin area, you get a visual overview of all donations through clear charts and graphs. See your top-performing causes, track donation trends over time, and monitor campaign progress at a glance.

This kind of visibility helps your leadership team make informed decisions about where to focus resources and how to communicate results to supporters. Transparency builds trust, and Charitas PRO gives you the tools to deliver it.

Advanced Customizer Options

Take full control of your website’s appearance through the WordPress Customizer. Charitas PRO gives you a live preview as you adjust background images, header settings, colors, typography, and layout options. Every change shows in real time, so you see exactly what your visitors will see before saving.

Choose from multiple page layouts designed for nonprofit websites. Configure how Causes, Projects, Staff profiles, and Documents are displayed. The Customizer makes it possible to build a unique, branded website that reflects your organization’s mission, without writing any code.

Full Gutenberg Editor Support

Charitas PRO works with the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). Create rich, visually engaging pages using blocks for text, images, galleries, videos, buttons, and more. Drag blocks into place, rearrange them, and style your content without any technical knowledge.

If you update your website regularly with cause updates, project reports, and news, the block editor keeps that quick and simple. Your team can maintain the website confidently, even without a dedicated webmaster.

Who Is Charitas PRO For?

Charitas PRO fits organizations that want a traditional charity website: a few active causes, a list of projects, a staff page and a place for annual reports. For example:

• Nonprofit organizations and NGOs: run fundraising campaigns with progress bars, show your projects, and publish documents so donors and stakeholders can see the results.
• Charities and foundations: accept donations through PayPal, show the causes you support, publish annual reports, and introduce your team on one website.
• Community organizations and volunteer groups: use staff profiles, project tracking, and social sharing to coordinate activities, attract new members, and keep your community involved.
• Political organizations and campaigns: publish your platform, collect donations, share documents, and stay in touch with supporters.
• Charitas Lite users ready to upgrade: if you started with the free version and now need donations, Custom Post Types, WooCommerce, and dedicated support, Charitas PRO is the next step. Your existing content carries over.

Why Choose Charitas PRO?

Over 5,000 organizations worldwide run their websites on Charitas. Here’s what they get:

Purpose-built for nonprofits. Charitas PRO didn’t start as a generic theme with a donation plugin bolted on. Fundraising with automatic progress bars, project showcases and document publishing were designed for organizations like yours from the start. That means fewer plugins, less configuration, and a more cohesive experience.

Donations without platform fees. Third-party fundraising platforms take a percentage of every donation. Charitas PRO connects directly to PayPal instead, so your organization keeps more of every dollar and donors give right on your website.

Always up to date. Charitas PRO receives regular updates to stay compatible with the latest WordPress versions, PHP up to 8.5, WooCommerce, and popular plugins like Yoast SEO. When WordPress evolves, your theme evolves with it.

Real support from real people. Our support team knows Charitas inside and out because we built it. You get direct access to WordPress professionals who understand nonprofit websites, not outsourced agents reading from a script.

Everything included. Demo content, child theme, full documentation, PayPal integration, WooCommerce compatibility, and 7 Custom Post Types come with every license. There are no required add-ons or hidden fees.
