The challenge

What they were up against.

Ummeed — The Hope Special School works with special-needs children, and the school wanted its students and programs to finally have a genuine presence online — a place where the school's work could be represented to the public properly, not just an internal record. Alongside that, they needed a way to create and share events tied to their different programs, accept online donations, and let non-technical staff keep everything updated themselves, without depending on a developer for routine changes.

What we built

How we solved it.

  3. 3

    Added an event management feature where staff can create an event and attach a Google link to it, so visitors can connect directly to specific program activities
