The Challenge
Since 1977, Meals on Wheels of Chesapeake (MOWC) has delivered more than just meals; it’s delivered daily connection and compassion to homebound seniors. But their outdated website was falling short. Key information was hard to find, navigation was clunky, and internal updates were time-consuming. With limited resources, MOWC needed a modern, easy-to-manage solution that could elevate their mission, without exceeding their budget.
The Solution
Although MOWC initially requested a redesign, TechArk identified that a full WordPress rebuild would be more cost-effective in the long run. Armed with a clear vision, content, and branding materials from the client, we built a warm, welcoming, and intuitive website that brings their mission to life. New features, including donation buttons and integrated forms, made it easier for supporters to get involved, saving staff time and improving community engagement.
Performance Snapshot
- Full WordPress rebuild with custom, budget-conscious design
- Integrated donation and wishlist functionality
- Streamlined forms for volunteer and service requests
- User-friendly backend for easy updates
The Results
Meals on Wheels of Chesapeake now has a modern, easy-to-manage website that streamlines operations and supports growth. With an upgraded design and tools that support outreach, donations, and operations, MOWC is better positioned to nourish both bodies and connections in their community.
Client Feedback
