DreamHost does free hosting, but you may have to be a 501c3. It's sometimes slow to upload, but not bad.
Also, some web development type companies host employee sites, or sites for orgs they like. So if you have any members that work for webby firms, you might have them ask about this.
We run our site on Drupal - which I highly recommend.

I believe you can get free hosting through the BCN. Jonathan from Salt Lake will know for sure, I'm sure he'll chime in here.
Also if you're moving the site I highly recommend running it on Joomla!
Ride On!

Well, I recently threw together some hand-written HTML and slapped it_______________________________________________
onto a free (and ad-less) webhost. This seemed great at first,
regardless of the weird URL.
But after lots of other publicity and potential traffic, I've seen it
get hacked twice (by a radical Islamic group after the whole host,
nothing personal), and lately it's either painfully slow to load or
completely down.
So, I haven't done this for about a decade and I'm out of the loop.
I'm really not willing to suffer any ads, but since our budgeted is
obcenely limited for such fluff, does anyone have recommendations? Are
there any more reliable ad-free free hosts? (Probably not, for obvious
reasons.)
Otherwise, how do you guys handle web hosting? How much does it cost?
What's a good balance between reliable and affordable? How much is
domain registration nowadays? We don't have our 501(c)(3) status yet
so we won't get a deal until later this year, by the way.
Anyway, please help. It's rough to find time to FTP an update and find
the site's down.
Thanks,
