composer require drupal/horizonaid
Horizon Aid is a free site template for NGOs, nonprofits, charities, foundations and humanitarian aid organizations. It installs a complete website with pages for your programs, the countries you work in, events and resources, plus a donate page and newsletter sign-up calls to action.
Every page is built with Drupal Canvas, so editors change layouts and content without code. Listings update as you publish, and the demo content is there to be replaced.
Built for
- NGOs and humanitarian aid organizations
- Nonprofits and charities
- Foundations
- Organizations reporting on work across several countries
What you get
- Pages ready to publish: home, about, programs, countries, events, resources and donate.
- Country pages: one page per country, covering your role, work on the ground, key figures and partners. Twelve countries ship as demo content.
- Programs and resources: a page for each program, and a resources listing with individual resource pages.
- Events: dates, location, categories and an events listing.
- Field updates: blog posts for news and reports from the field.
- Listings that stay current: every listing is a view with a card display, so publishing or unpublishing content updates the site without editing a page.
- Calls to action: a donate page and newsletter sign-up. [Confirm] whether the donate page processes payments or links to an external provider.
- A working site on first install: demo content, media and menus, so a fresh install looks like a live site rather than an empty shell.

Which Drupal version does it need?
Drupal CMS 2 (Drupal 11).
How do I install it?
Require drupal/horizonaid with Composer, then choose Horizon Aid in the Drupal CMS installer. The commands on this page do the same with DDEV and Drush.
