    "I want them to" != "They need to"

    Site looks okay to me.

    Why does it need https so badly?

    Why does it need https? I didn't see anywhere that it was asking for personally identifiable information (PII) or credit card numbers. Were you considering using the site to transmit clandestine messages to your operatives in the hot zone in Liberia? What's up with this?
