Hi First name / there,
Wow, Q1 has flown by! 🚀 I've been looking back at what I've done, and I wanted to share a project that was really meaningful to me. It's a website redesign for
Silver Service Children's Foundation, a nonprofit that's close to my heart.
My best friend is a nurse who volunteers with the organization, and she first hired me to create their website back in 2020 when I was just starting out as a Squarespace designer. This was one of my first professional web design projects!
Looking at the site earlier this year, I realized it was due for an update. It was still on Squarespace 7.0, the older version of the platform, so I saw an opportunity to not just modernize the technical side, but also improve the user experience.
My main goals were to:
- Make the donation call-to-action more prominent
- Utilize the newer Squarespace 7.1 features to add dynamic elements and playful animations
- Give the whole site a fresh, energetic vibe
I had a lot of fun bringing the site to life, adding colorful animations and making sure the foundation's mission felt vibrant and accessible. The new design feels much more contemporary and inviting, and I'm really happy with how it turned out! Sometimes a little design love can make a massive difference for organizations doing incredible work. 💖
