Website Redesign

To honor Olivia’s legacy, I designed and built a custom website that supports the Foundation’s mission of scholarship giving, kindness campaigns, and community storytelling. The site serves not only as an online focal point, but as a heartfelt tribute to Olivia’s generosity and spirit.

Olivia’s Kindness Shining Through

Strategy & Execution

I designed and built a custom website for the Olivia’s Kindness Foundation to create a compassionate digital presence that amplifies its mission of supporting patients and families facing pediatric cancer. The website was designed to be warm, hopeful, and user-friendly—providing a clear path for visitors to learn, connect, and give back.

Deliverables Included:

  • Full Squarespace website build

  • Content strategy and messaging framework

  • Visual design and color palette exploration

  • Image sourcing and layout strategy

  • Donation and support integration

  • Mobile-responsive build

Platform Guidance & Support

Beyond design and build, I provided comprehensive guidance to ensure the OKF team had a sustainable, scalable digital presence that fit their goals and resources.

  • Platform Selection: Recommended Squarespace as the most effective option for its balance of elegant design flexibility, ease of use for non-technical staff, and integrated functionality (menus, forms, newsletter sign-ups, SEO).

  • Domain Purchase & Connection: Supported the team through domain purchase, DNS configuration, and secure connection to the new website.

  • Pricing Transparency: Outlined various Squarespace plans, helping the team understand cost tiers and select the most appropriate option for their needs and budget.

  • Training & Handoff: Provided guidance on updating content, adding new events or announcements, and managing the site independently post-launch.

  • Ongoing Support: Ensured that the platform setup positioned Zocca for smooth day-to-day management while remaining scalable as the restaurant grows.

Key Messaging & Story Anchors

  • Mission of Kindness: Highlighted the Foundation’s focus on spreading kindness and compassion by providing meaningful support for children and families navigating cancer.

  • Olivia’s Story: Centered the site around Olivia’s legacy, ensuring her story of resilience and kindness lives on as an inspiration to others.

  • Community Connection: Emphasized the importance of community-driven philanthropy, events, and acts of kindness as core pillars of the Foundation’s impact.

Visual Direction

  • Compassionate & Uplifting: Designed with a soft, approachable aesthetic that communicates empathy while celebrating resilience.

  • Human-Centered Imagery: Integrated visuals that reflect both the strength of families facing challenges and the generosity of the Foundation’s supporters.

  • Hopeful Palette: Applied a light, hopeful color palette paired with gentle typography to balance compassion with clarity, making the site inviting and approachable.
