Idaho Veterans Research & Education Foundation: a nonprofit site that builds support.
A website design case study from Boise, Idaho. We built a site for the Idaho Veterans Research & Education Foundation (IVREF) that tells its story clearly and makes it easy to support the mission. [placeholder: one-line summary of the project and the foundation's mission in its own words]
A clear mission, clearly told.
Quick facts about this project.
Trust drives every gift.
"If that story is hard to follow, people move on."
A nonprofit's website has to earn trust quickly. Donors, partners and researchers want to understand the mission, see where support goes and know who's behind it. If that story is hard to follow, people move on.
[placeholder: describe IVREF's starting point — e.g. a site that didn't explain the mission well, no simple way to give online, content that was hard for staff to update.]
