Project details

What we need
  • Feedback on the current website’s layout, user functionality, mobile-friendliness, visual design, content, and other key features
  • Clear articulation of the Organization’s goals for the website
  • Recommendations for improvements to help achieve the Organization’s desired goals
  • Note: If you are looking for a more specific, in-depth audit of your website's design and usability, try our Website Usability Audit project
Additional details

We are a new nonprofit (2 1/2 yrs old) and are ready to revamp our website to include more details, data, flexibility, forms. We are currently using Wordpress and would like to stay with that. We have had some design work done by some students that we can share with you and would love feedback on those design pieces.

What we have in place
  • We have Wordpress, we have some design work done by students that we can share that has not been implemented as we don't have the funds to redesign and implement using Full Stack.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,762 , allowing us to focus on using our funding to purchase a newer and larger Buggie - this is our goal before end of this fiscal year.

This project will help our organization by providing an easier and more pleasing website, easier forms to use, more data to show our impact which will help us with grant writing and bringing in donors. It will help us tell our story and show our funders how we are benefitting our communities, with their help.

Our mission

The Free Book Buggie provides children's books to ignite a passion for reading that empowers each child to explore a world full of opportunities.

What we do

We partner with organizations of all types in the Mpls/St. Paul metro area to get books into children's homes so they can build their own home libraries.
We focus on those areas that are book deserts along with low income communities to reach children who have few to no age-appropriate books in their home.
We fill our Buggie with books of all reading levels from baby to high school age and take the books to the children where they live and learn through our community partners.

Testimonials

Lindsey was a pleasure to work with. She did a great job auditing our current website, gave us great suggestions and insight about what to change, shared the things she liked and wrote a very complete document outlining her suggestions in all aspects. She was enthusiastic about working with us and did an overall great job on her audit. Thank you Lindsey!!
