Mobile-Friendly Website Audit
Project details
What we need
- An assessment of how well the Organization's website works on mobile devices (phones and tablets)
- Specific recommendations on how to update the website to work with mobile devices, including the highest priority enhancements needed to meet the Organization’s goals
- Guidance on next steps, or resources for starting a mobile responsive website redesign project
- Note: This project does not include new website development, or a complete responsive redesign of a current website.
What we have in place
- We currently have a coherent and well developed Wordpress site, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a full-time volunteer coordinator ready to assist, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $12,802 , allowing us to use that funding instead to find jobs in our employment center for 25 people creating $512,000 in new income in our community this year. Wealth that YOU are creating.
We connect UN refugee survivors of war and violence by providing opportunities for well-being, education and employment, as well as the relationships with other Americans that will help them truly flourish in their new homeland. Many of our clients are low-income and only can access our site via mobile device, but it is extremely hard to use via mobile. A mobile optimized site would mean more people getting jobs, more kids going to summer camp instead of gang life, more healthy babies born to empowered moms and more folks learning English. Will you join the story with us?
