These insights led to user personas, driving the design process and prototype refinement via user testing. Developer consultations ensured a robust, scalable system for NPO integration, combining agile development with technical precision, making "Light Up" a powerful tool for digital philanthropy.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge in developing 'Light Up' was to create a trusted, engaging app for young donors, blending a user-friendly interface with features like interactive maps and impact tracking. Simplifying the donation process to show clear impacts was key, as was balancing design with functionality to encourage philanthropy and build community. Prioritizing privacy, we carefully managed interactions and map details to respect beneficiary privacy, reflecting our dedication to a secure, respectful platform.
- Research
- Our research aimed at connecting young donors and NPOs, tackling engagement and transparency issues. Through interviews and testing, we identified the need for a digital solution like "Light Up" to modernize donation processes. Insights from NALAM highlighted outdated methods, pushing us to create a platform enhancing donor engagement with real-time updates. Developing a persona based on young professional donors guided our design, addressing their desires for impactful giving. "Light Up" revitalizes the donation experience, fostering stronger NPO-donor connections and promoting meaningful philanthropy.
