I Need A Talented Web Developer For A Challenging Project

Hello! I need to hire a smart, creative, experienced developer to help me with this unique project over the next 3 months (deadline for completion is mid-February).

I'm starting to have a good idea of what I need to build, but I'm not yet sure how we should go about building it. The existing website is in Wordpress, so we may want to build this solution in Wordpress, or we may want to build a separate system using other software (e.g. CRM), or there's a chance we could even create a Facebook app (but I doubt it). I need you to help me figure this out and then do most of the development.

Please share your past work experience and give links to some of your work, tell me a little about yourself, and tell me your required starting salary.

If you want to know a little more about me, here's a simple 1 page website that explains what I do: https://www.makechange.online/

I wrote some notes about the project down below, but I've also made a video to try to explain it better: http://philstorage.s3.amazonaws.com/shs-needs.mp4

This project is for a non-profit organization that does 2 things:

1. They coordinate the donation of school supplies from wealthy schools to under-funded schools. Each school creates a ‘club’ in which both teachers and students can volunteer.

2. They coordinate the volunteering of students from wealthy schools in under-funded schools to help them with various things.

Up until now we’ve been handling all of this coordination manually. My goal is to build an online application that empowers all of these school clubs (and the students and teachers) to communicate with other in order to facilitate the donations and volunteering. We currently have 10 wealthy schools and 40 under-funded schools, but we’d like this platform to be able to scale nationally. Here’s what we need the platform to do:

-Each school club needs to be able to create and maintain an online profile.

-Each volunteer student and teacher needs to be able to create and maintain their own online profile, as well as being able to 'join' their school club’s online profile/group.

-The wealthy school club needs to be able to enter the items they have available for donation, probably selecting from a list of possible items (this will probably done through a series of online forms).

-The under-funded school club needs to be able to indicate what they need, also in an online form.

-All schools should be able to see these lists online in order to figure out where the surplus items should go. The under-funded schools should be able to request certain items from the donating schools, and the donating schools should be able to offer certain items to the under-funded schools. And we need the schools to be able to plan their own delivery of the items.

-We need to keep track of all past deliveries in order to measure the financial impact, and display that information on each of the school club's online profiles.

-On the volunteer side of things, the under-funded schools need to be able to schedule volunteer opportunities in a calendar, and the donating students need to be able to sign up for those opportunities. This must all be tracked as well, again, to measure our impact, and to reward the donating students on their profiles.

-All students need the ability to post somehow in the system, like a blog post or status update or whatever it will be called depending on where the system is.
