- Website Design
- Sustainability Plan
A lot happens at Habitat for Humanity of Palm Beach County, which means at lot of users come through their website. There are applicants for new housing and for home repairs, staff, and job applicants. There are volunteers, some of whom are court-ordered, for builds and also for Habitat’s three stores. There are shoppers, donors of used goods and of cash, and corporate sponsors. We helped Habitat build a digital home for all of them by creating 50 pages for their site in less than 3 months.
From Text Overwhelm to Inspired Storytelling
The new Habitat website shows people as the heart of their mission. Images and testimonials demonstrate the powerful impact of their work, across mediums: their website included photo and video galleries as well as an audio player for their podcast. Form didn’t precede function; we also incorporated all the dreamed-about functionalities, including event registration and calendar, lightbox popup, donations skin, integrated CRM forms and newsletter sign-up, and user authenticated pages.
Designed to Make an Impact on Every Website Visitor

”From our initial inquiry all the way to the live site, Elevation listened to our needs and provided the highest level of customer service. We started the project with a very tight timeline, and they were able to deliver consistently. The finished site is exactly what we were looking for, and we are so happy with its flexibility and ease of use. We are confident that the site will grow with our needs. As a nonprofit, a website is one of your most important assets to communicate your mission to the public, and I strongly recommend Elevation if you are looking for a powerful way to tell your story."
