THE APPROACH
How We Made It Happen
Here’s how we approached it.
01
Refine the Process
A major priority was to streamline the fundraiser process and quickly convey how simple it is to start a fundraiser using FairTrade’s products and one-of-a-kind system.
02
Raise Awareness and Educate
We told two stories: how fair-trade choices impact small farmers worldwide, and why supporters would be happy with the high-quality products they’d receive.
03
High-End Tools
We gave visitors the experience of a high-end, intuitive service when creating their own personal, customized fundraisers — not just a beautiful front end, but powerful tools behind it.
The STORY
Making a World of Difference Through Fundraising
FairTrade Caravans outgrew their pilot webstore and needed more functionality, deeper customization, and streamlined back-end processes to bring efficiency to order fulfillment. We designed the site and the system — building a beautiful, highly customized, user-friendly experience for administrators and customers alike.

FairTrade Caravans had outgrown their original webstore. The fundraising model worked, but the technology behind it couldn’t keep up with demand. They needed a system that matched the quality and thoughtfulness of the products they sell. We built a custom fundraiser creation tool, a management dashboard for administrators, and a streamlined shopping experience that makes it easy for schools, clubs, and nonprofits to run successful campaigns while supporting artisans and farmers around the world.
