From social enterprises to professional associations – the .org domain is the TLD that helps purpose-driven people and organizations connect with communities around the world .
At Porkbun, we pride ourselves on being different, providing worry-free support and comprehensive resources to those looking to register a domain name. Similarly dependable, the .org domain is home to anyone working toward a greater good and eager to share their story online.
Many of these forward-thinking global businesses, individuals, and organizations (not just charities) turn to Porkbun for their .org domains. Below are a few examples of likeminded organizations we support – from community groups to cultural institutions – exemplifying that anyone with a mission to bring their vision to the world has an online home with .org.
1. Hands on Crafts
Hand on Crafts (handsoncrafts.org) works to make the world a little greener by repurposing typically-overlooked household items into something crafty and useful. Every year, the world tosses out 2.6 trillion tons of garbage and only 1% of that waste is recycled. Hands on Crafts provides creative project ideas and easy-to-follow tutorials that help households make the most of recyclable items that would otherwise be discarded – turning trash into treasure in pursuit of a greener, happier place for us all.
2. Explore Romania
Many small businesses use the .org domain to increase their local and global footprint. Explore Romania (exploreromania.org) is a tour and travel agency that offers Romania visitors the ability to explore the country with minimal impact on the environment. With help from local guides, the organization curates experiences that preserve Romanian communities, support local farmers, and offer tastings of the country’s famous cuisine. With each tour, Explore Romania connects communities across historical, global, and cultural differences through a common pursuit of adventure and authenticity.
3. Freeport Community Band
Also popular among musical groups, the .org domain allows the Freeport Community Band, (freeportband.org) based in Freeport, New York, a platform to broaden their reach. The organization is a volunteer-based concert band made up of musicians from all walks of life, all of whom share a simple love of music. They offer free public concerts and learning opportunities for seasoned musicians and novices alike, and are always eager to welcome new members. First formed in 1921, the Freeport Community Band has since continued to read multiple compositions together, building repertoire, community, and camaraderie with every note.
Engage, Educate, Connect
A powerful stage for any individual or group, .org inspires connection and offers opportunities to share in collective passions and interests online. Whether you’re seeking to engage, educate, build trust, or simply connect with your desired audience, .org helps you highlight your work and share it with the world.
If you are one of these forward-looking folks – nonprofit or otherwise – our team at Porkbun would be happy to help you find your name within the .org collective. Connect with us today!
