DESCRIPTION

As a student project, my classmate and I were asked to add an update feature for our client, HandUp. Normally this would be easy, but the people providing the updates are homeless. So we needed to look a little deeper to find a way to interact with them.

TRANSCRIPT

Design by: Michael Bush and Ed Lewis

Student Project. General Assembly UXDI Winter 2013

About the Product: HandUp is a website that enables people to donate money towards the needs of homeless people in San Francisco. It does this by partnering with a group that already works with the homeless and unlike other charities, 100% of the donation goes to the receivers and donors can direct donations to specific people.

About the Project: The HandUp team at General Assembly was looking to create a way to deepen the connection between donors and members with updates and donor comments. This connection is expected to be good for encouraging donors to make more donations in the future.

Donor responds withsupportive comment

• Support devices members use - Many members have cell phones with smaller screens than smartphones. This means there’s limited space for text interactions.

• Very limited staff time - Cut out as much staff time needed as services are already stretched thin and members can only meet in person once a week right now.

• Sensitivity in messaging - Messaging needs to be true to the needs of the people being served.

I T E R AT I O N S

After conversations with stakeholders it quickly became clear that we needed to enable a way for members to update without direct help. Since cell phones are relatively common it became a useful tool in the whole process. After that it we changed our focus from just the website to more of a hybrid model so conversations could go back and forth between different types of devices.
