OVERVIEW
DCMH is a non-profit organization that provides food and housing to individuals in need.
For our hackathon project, our team collaborated on redesigning and improving the user experience of DCMH's current website. Overall, this project was a very collaborative process with a quick turnaround time – only 24 hours to complete.
PAIN POINTS
DCMH's website had too many navigation links and most of the information was outdated. So, users seeking help had trouble navigating the site or contacting the program.
We heard from speaking with Tracy, the executive director of DCMH, that they often receive many emails from visitors asking for clarification of the services and support they offer.
INSPIRATION
When we spoke more with Tracy, she wanted to focus on the housing aspect of DCMH. She also highlighted the nonprofit’s values such as compassion, kindness, and a safe space. During the iteration process, I kept these values in mind when deciding on the logo design, colors, and typography.
