Crafting a Bold Website to Amplify a Foundation’s Transformative Impact

The Wilson Sheehan Foundation (WS) invests in organizations that support and empower people living in low-income communities. We designed and built a new digital home for the Foundation, working in partnership with Mighty Good who created the Foundation’s stunning brand identity and messaging.

The goals for the site are to share the Foundation’s mission, highlight the changemakers they support, and enable organizations to apply for grants. Visually, we wanted the site to mirror the optimism of Chris and Lorainne (Sheehan) Wilson—the Foundation’s founders. Our design uses bright blocks of color, bold typography, and large photos of people impacted by the Foundation's investments.

The site was built in Wordpress, giving WS the flexibility to add new grantees in the future. We were inspired by the commitment, empathy, and drive of the Wilson Sheehan Foundation and enjoyed building a site that would share their impact with the world.
