Omair Saleh 581f1e5f14 sharp flat redesign: all landing pages + replace donors with organisations
Design overhaul:
- Removed all emoji-heavy sections, rounded-3xl, cartoonish borders
- Sharp flat edges (square or rounded-lg max)
- Typography-driven hierarchy with numbered steps (01, 02, 03...)
- Border-left accent lines instead of colored card borders
- Grid-with-gap-px pattern for table-like sections
- Dark sections (bg-gray-950) for stats and CTAs
- Image placeholders (gray boxes with photo icons) for future real photography
- Shared components: Nav, Footer, BottomCta, ImagePlaceholder in /for/_components

Pages:
- / (main): Hero → 30-50% stat → 4 persona cards with images → 4 steps → compliance → payment → platforms → CTA
- /for/charities: Hero split with image → pain points → numbered flow with 2 images → features with left-border accents
- /for/fundraisers: Hero split → gap visualization (3-col dark panel) → flow with images → before/after grid → platforms grid
- /for/volunteers: Hero split → 3-col features (gap-px grid) → event flow → share channels → CTA to charity manager
- /for/organisations: NEW (replaces /for/donors) → multi-org pledges, umbrella fundraising, institutional partnerships

Removed /for/donors — donors use the pledge form, they don't need a landing page
