DiamondNRough Inc.
DiamondsNRough is a small grassroots non-profit in Kansas City, Missouri aimed to help underserved families and communities through mental health initiatives, educational resources, curriculum guidance, and wrap-around partnerships. When the CEO, Rodney Copridge, approached Illum requesting guidance for online expansion, it was a no brainer. While centering the monetary limitations of a small non-profit, we provide DiamondNRoughs with an flexible, affordable, and engaging website that captured the essences of their work while allowing them to showcase events.
Developing an Online Presence
When affordability is centered in the design process, the key is to keep it simple yet dynamic. By leveraging the bold colors of their logo (maroon, sky blue, and dark charcoal grey), we used sharp blocks of color-block frames paired with pictures to catch the user's eye.
Event Registration
DiamondNRough host many events around the Kansas City Metropolitan. Event promotion and registration can often be tedious can for a small team. We helped build a simple registration form that allows community members to sign up, receive updates, and get automatic email updates.
