LT Charity
Charity theme for Elementor: an appeal with a gift ladder that shows what each amount pays for, programmes, volunteering and where the money goes.
Key features
- An appeal with a gift ladderThe home page opens with your appeal and a ladder of gifts, each rung an amount and the one thing it pays for, smallest at the bottom.
- Programmes with their own rungEach service gets a row and a page with times, place, who it is for and one rung of the ladder that shows what a gift does there.
- Get help, simplyA three-step guide to getting help, opening times and a running-low list that tells donors what to bring this week.
- Donate and volunteer pagesOne-off and monthly ladders, ways to give, volunteer shifts, fundraising ideas and partner information for companies and schools.
- Where every $100 goesA plain breakdown of spending and income, ready for your own figures from the annual accounts.
- Free Elementor and a ready formEvery page uses free Elementor widgets on Hello Elementor, with a 'Volunteer, give or ask for help' form made with the free WPForms Lite plugin. Fonts are bundled: no Google Fonts requests.
Let an AI assistant do the routine work
You can ask an AI assistant such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor to change texts, add pages or check your set-up, as our block themes already allow. Here is what this template gives you for that.
- AI kit Included with Pro Unlimited A file that explains the template to your AI assistant, ready prompts for common edits, and a checker that reports mistakes before you publish.
- AI help in ticket support Available now with Pro Open a ticket and you get an instant AI-drafted answer; a person from our team follows up. Ticket support

Questions
Do I need Elementor Pro?
No. LT Charity uses only the free Elementor plugin and the free Hello Elementor theme. The header and footer are part of the theme, so you do not need Theme Builder.
Can it take online donations?
The theme does not process payments. Link the Donate buttons to the donation page of your payment provider or fundraising platform, or use the ways-to-give rows for bank transfer and standing orders.
Can I change the amounts on the gift ladder?
Yes. Each rung is a normal Elementor row with an amount and a sentence; edit them in the editor, or ask an AI assistant to do it with the AI kit's safe edit tool.
Will my site look like the demo?
Yes, with Pro: Appearance > Demo import creates every page, the colours, fonts, menu, header and footer. The demo photos are replaced by placeholders you swap for your own.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free has the design, header and footer, the About us and Contact pages and the blog. Pro adds the home page, Our work, Get involved and their sub-pages, sample posts, one-click demo import, credit removal, updates and support. Pro Unlimited adds the AI kit.
I have the old LT Charity. Is this an update?
It is a new version 2.0 with a new design, built for free Elementor. Your current site keeps working; install 2.0 on a new site or a staging copy and import the demo there.
