OVERVIEW

Problem

The Firefighters Charitable Foundation non-profit website has a lack of  visitors and donors. Users are unable to interact with the community events and have a hard time requesting grants.

Solution

Build a modern-day website that is efficient, functional, and aesthetically pleasing. We want this platform to encourage and motivate the community to take action and make a difference.

Proto Persona

User Research: Online Survey

Ten participants conducted the survey, ages 26-35, who interact with the community. Our team set up for the quantitative research to look into how users experience in looking for a non-profit website, and what experience to donating money before.​

Final Thoughts

Key Takeaways
- Because of the time-limited, our team could not redesign every page on the website. We are relied on our user research and interviews to narrow down the scope of the redesign and focus on content relevant to our user persona.
- Open to different experiences and ideas with the team


Next Steps
- Continue to iterate and test the sub pages
- Build another page relevant to user personas
- Do additional user tests on the IA, UI and navigation
- Build a high-fidelity mobile & tablet version to interact with users' activities
