Aea, you might want to take a look at ExpressionEngine. It is the content management software that CI was created from, and also, it drives the CI development to a considerable degree. Imagine a CMS built on CI, and that's what you have. Its free for non-profit uses also.

That said, if you have the time and/or opportunity, it may well be worth it to stick out the CI learning curve. It'll make you a better programmer, I promise you that

Thank you for the Expression Engine recommendation, the software just isn't for me as there's a cost attached for commercial development which I just can't justify over developing from scratch, especially since I like to have neat (even if it was procedural so far) code
