“You are not just artistically talented, but you must surely be gifted in reading minds as well. I really feel like you captured everything I wanted CARES to be represented as. The entire process has been a pleasure. Thank you again so very, very much.”

Amanda Roberts, director

Background

CARES (Critter Adoption, Rescue, and Education Society) is a New Orleans animal rescue.

Problem

CARES needed a website that was engaging and mobile friendly, encouraging visitors to donate.

Solution

We created a new design with prominent calls to action (adopting, volunteering and donating). We reworked the content and set up the site in WordPress so CARES could easily make their own edits. The design is simple yet modern, using icons and cool CSS effects to give it a playful feel. It shows dogs and cats available for adoption and educates potential pet adopters about the rescue’s process. We created infographics to show how donations are used, while making it easy for the visitor to donate a predetermined or custom amount. The site is also mobile friendly.

Because of Colleen’s passion for helping shelter animals, the work was done pro bono.
