Boys & Girls Club – Boston

Overview

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston, an organization whose mission is to help young people build strong character and realize their full potential as responsible citizens and leaders, reached out to Danconia Media for a redesign of their website.

The Challenge

The Boys & Girls Clubs have a strong, widely known and identifiable brand, which had to remain consistent throughout the new site while, at the same time, allowing for a fresh, new look. The site also needed the capability to feature a wealth of information for kids and teens interested in the various programs offered.

The Solution

We designed the site using a highly intuitive, flexible open-source content management system (CMS) that allows Boys & Girls Club staff to work on the site without having to call on outside agencies. The user-friendly nature of the CMS ensures that anyone can quickly and easily add, remove, or modify content. The simple layout and interface includes a widget in the slideshow that automatically pulls from the Clubs’ Twitter feed, and highlights the achievements of past and current club members.
