Website case study
Grafton Education Foundation: built for clear next steps.
The Grafton Education Foundation’s existing website was working, but the organization wanted a more current look and an easier way to keep its content up to date.
This case study covers the verified redesign goals, the dynamic content approach, and feedback GEF shared while the website prepared to launch.

Client perspective
Built to stay useful after launch.
GEF noted that website traffic is cyclical and rises as events get closer. Because the redesign was still preparing to launch when the organization responded, the case study does not claim early performance results; measurement can follow once the site has supported a full event cycle.
“Grant has been great to work with. He took charge of the project and if any areas needed attention he was very quick to respond.”
