Because it appears that to make modifications to the site you need a PHP developer and FTP access.
I find your comment about an overzelous developer trying to make some cash to be completely inappropriate (and wildly inaccurate).
I used to develop small php-driven sites for non-profits, exactly like this. I converted them all to Wordpress, specifically so that they didn't need to contact me when they wanted to make modifications.
I stand by my advice (and seriously have no interest in being the one to do it).

Why rebuild the site, if you can just get access to the back end from the previous devs?It seems like that would be over kill and the stance of an overzealous developer looking to make some cash of a site...On Wed, Aug 19, 2015 at 1:17 PM, Tac Tacelosky <tacman@gmail.com> wrote:You might be better off finding a Wordpress theme and re-creating the site in Wordpress. Then it'd be fairly easy to update the site, or find people who can. You can even do that without interacting with the old developers. And frankly, you don't want to be tied to new developers either.There's no reason that a site like yours should be custom-built, it's an ideal candidate for Wordpress.Tac--On Wed, Aug 19, 2015 at 9:04 AM, Melvin Hardy <melvin.hardy@gmail.com> wrote:I am not a coder or developer.
