"When SHINE came to Quantus we were simply looking for a company to
design a web site for our new organization. Because so much business
is conducted via internet, and because we are a young organization, we
needed to expand and reach more people. We were looking to reach more
people, put together a more professional image, strengthen the
legitimacy of our business, and provide donors and interested parties
easier access to information about what SHINE is and what we do. We
wanted an edge, a company capable of designing a site that would stand
out when compared to other sites. We wanted a site that was pleasing
to the eye and yet user friendly for our supporters."

We (Quantus) developed a logo that embellished the hope and light the foundation brings to some of the darkest areas of the world. The spirit of the organization is shown within the identity, while also maintaining the organizations main color of a particular type of brown. We next developed a web site that was easy to navigate, yet offered attention to aesthetic design. The site features an online donation function, field blog, online store for foundation items, interactive photo section, press links, and information on upcoming projects.

"Since the website and logo were created we have done all of the
above. We have a more professional image, we are able to reach more
people, we have strengthened the legitimacy of our business, and
provided donors with easier access to information about our
organization. We have also been able to receive donations online,
which has greatly helped in our fundraising efforts, as it is
convenient for supporters. We have also received an office space, computer, and field staff vehicle that where listed as needs. It has resulted in wonderful feedback
regarding our website. People find that the site looks unique,
simple, polished, and very efficient. Our site is simple but in no
way boring or dull. It catches the eye and draws people in. We are
very pleased with the service that Quantus has provided to SHINE and
will continue to work with Quantus in the future."
