For Businesses

Elevate the Future is a San Jose based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization offering free websites for small businesses through an initiative called Project Falcon. The initiative utilizes experienced high school Elevate the Future web designers to teach middle school students HTML/CSS and allow them to apply these skills to assist in the building of a businesses' website. Each website is created by a team of middle school students that have undergone Elevate the Future's comprehensive web design course and is extensively screened and perfected by experienced Elevate the Future web designers. Having a modern website provides businesses with a way to be competitive in the digital market space and leverage a powerful marketing channel, drawing customers to their business, which is helpful during the current shelter-in-place and even as COVID-19 subsides. Our experienced high school instructors will work with your team to ensure that the website is designed exactly to your liking. Help us empower the next generation through Project Falcon!

Project Falcon offers a hands-on method to web development. Students learn important languages including HTML, CSS and JavaScript and find creative ways to employ them in their websites.

Additionally, Students learn to make the most of the internet, utilizing various online resources including BootStrap, UIKit and Bulma, allowing their visions to come to life on the web.
