donna — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 04:54:24 +0000

The Commission to Promote Sustainable Child Welfare, a new Ontario government agency that we also created the branding for, needed a website to present the mission and mandate of the commission. This site was created with both English and French versions and features client administrator capability to update written content, add links to outside content, upload PDFs and images, create and delete pages and create new menu categories. This exists inside of a transparent user-interface, within a warm and inviting design, reflecting the commission’s mandate.

The Toronto Grace Health Centre Foundation raises funds to support patient care at Toronto Grace Health Centre. As identified on their marketing plan for 2009, the foundation was in need of a website to promote its cause, tell stories, and move people’s hearts into giving. Casco was hired to design and develop a website for the foundation that would both strategically transmit the message of compassionate care that the institution offers to its patients, and provide the foundation with tools to aid its efforts and initiatives to collect funds for the hospital, while adhering to the foundation’s branding guidelines.

Casco was also hired to create and write the content for the website. It was important to not only create content for all sections of the website and set the tone for visitors to understand the foundations cause, but also to create headlines and call to action statements supported by images to persuade the visitor to contribute and donate.

Beth Kaplan

We designed this self-promotional and informative website for Beth Kaplan, which also includes original photography. The website promotes her book, Finding the Jewish Shakespeare The Life and Legacy of Jacob Gordin, her published articles, podcasts and personal blog. It was important for us to take this all into account in order to provide Beth with a consistent web presence. As such, we designed a custom Blogger theme to continue the visual appearance established on the official website. Providing a Blogger theme was a cost-effective solution which allowed Beth to keep using Blogger due to her familiarity with the application and maintain her existing subscribers.
