We Build Websites That Make a Difference
A Sharjah-based design agency with a heart for nonprofits.
BrandStory was founded in 2018 with a simple belief: every organisation doing good deserves a website that reflects the importance of its work. We started by helping a small charity in Sharjah redesign their outdated site. The result? A 70% increase in online donations within three months. That success led to more projects, and soon we were working with nonprofits across the UAE.
Today, we’re a team of designers, developers, and strategists who specialise in the nonprofit sector. We’ve built sites for educational foundations, healthcare charities, religious organisations, and community groups. Our work has helped our clients raise millions in donations, recruit thousands of volunteers, and expand their reach far beyond Sharjah.
