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
Additional details

We need a redesign of a key page on our our website that is meant to show the depth and breadth of our partnerships with community based organizations: https://takerootjustice.org/community-partners/partners/. We currently have a placeholder there from our annual report last year (https://takerootjustice.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Takeroot.Overview.Report.RGB_.pdf), and an incomplete list of partners. The site is wordpress, and the new design will have to work within it.

What we have in place
  • We currently have the excel spreadsheet that the graphic was built from, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have enthusiastic and dedicated staff to work with you, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,186 , allowing us to represent low income tenants in a negotiation for benefits they will be able to rely on when new buildings are allowed to be built on their grounds.

The foundation of our work is our partnerships with grassroots organizations, developed within a tested framework for social change. This project will help us tell our story better, influence the sector and honor our relationships.
