The Dillon Henry Foundation was established after the untimely passing of Dillon Henry, a remarkable Southern California teenager, who set off from an early age to change the world for the better through great leadership and compassion. The Dillon Henry Foundation is carrying on his goals to help improve education and the environment while abolishing poverty worldwide.
Challenge
Establish an identity and comprehensive web presence for a newly formed organization
Once established as a 501(C)(3) charity, the Dillon Henry Foundation wanted an entire brand and web presence created in a one month timeframe to inform those close to Dillon about the newly formed organization and also provide a place to both grieve and commemorate Dillon's life and memorialize his loved ones' respects.
Solution
Create the brand experience and definitive, interactive web solution for The Dillon Henry Foundation
Basing the ‘look & feel’ around Dillon's broad range of interests, the design showcases the surfboard wax-inspired logo tied together with several important pieces of memorabilia important in Dillon Henry's life. SolutionSet designers used this casual presentation to seamlessly tie together the various areas of the site including image galleries, writing samples, overviews of the partnered charity organizations, a memorial message board, and mailing list. SolutionSet also incorporated PayPal donations capability to allow site visitors to easily make contributions to the various partner charities.
