UX design case study
Animal Shelter website
The focus on a volunteer registration user flow
Concept
People with disabilities struggle to ask strangers about small help, it’s insecure and also they can’t be sure if the person is happy to help.

Create an app that also will become a community and safe space for people with disabilities to confidently ask for help

My role

Target audience


People who visit the Animal shelter website to adopt, donate or become a volunteer. Usually, people from 16 to 99 years old, who have time and inspiration for that, retired people and students

Challenges and constraints
  • Understandable flow
    For people who are not familiar with internet and apps it might be challenging to sign up for a volunteer program
  • Descriptions
    A lot of people are able and inspired to help, but have no idea how it works, so they are not volunteering
  • Adaptive
    The website should work perfectly both ways - desktop and mobile (+tablet)
