Website Visual Design
Project details
What we need
- A visual redo of the Organization's website
- Design direction based on Organization's desired branding and style preferences
- Mock-ups of key site pages
- Commitment to 2 phone calls with a developer to guide initial front-end coding work
- Note: We recommend this project for custom websites. If your site is built on a CMS platform like Wordpress or Squarespace that offers templates, you may not need this project. Check out our Website Content Plan project for help building a CMS-based website
What we have in place
- We currently have an okay website, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have lots of inspiring photos, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,186 , allowing us to enroll approximately 25 students in school.
Because we work in Haiti, sharing our story with supporters abroad is critical to our sustainability. Help our website go from grassroots to GREAT!

Our mission
GOALS Haiti uses soccer to engage youth in community service and education to improve quality of life today and develop new leaders for tomorrow.
What we do
GOALS is designed to tap into kids’ and communities’ incredible love for soccer and channel that passion toward long-lasting, sustainable change from the ground up.
GOALS uses sport to engage communities on issues that affect their daily lives, emphasizing education, health, gender, and the environment. Every week, teams choose a service project and attend an educational seminar in exchange for soccer equipment, food and water, materials, and a coaching stipend. On the field, players practice soccer, conflict resolution, and leadership skills.
Our impact:
Currently, GOALS’ daily soccer, service and education programs reach over 600 boys and girls, ages 7-18, each month at four different sites in Leogane. We have directly impacted over 6,200 people to date.
During 80,667 hours of volunteer service, our players have come together to plant 60 community vegetable gardens and 800 trees; pick up over 66,825 gallons of trash; and recycle six truckloads of plastic bottles. Since 2010, our kids have eaten over 232,000 healthy meals and 30 students have returned to school through our scholarship program.
Why we're unique:
- GOALS is the only organization in Haiti providing children with free, daily sport-for-development programs on a permanent basis.
- By requiring communities to support boys and girls teams equally, we are one of the most gender equitable sport-for-development projects worldwide.
- Fifteen of sixteen staff members are Haitian, and every member of “Team GOALS” participates in intensive leadership trainings.
- Monthly meetings are held publicly to solicit feedback, answer questions, and engage community stakeholders.
In our first two years, GOALS established itself as a global leader in the field and was awarded the “Best New Project” honor by Beyond Sport, presented by Tony Blair in London. Now if that doesn't say it all, what will?
