Drupal web sites offer clients many more options than conventional sites. Most importantly, with minimal training clients can update the site using a user-friendly interface. Drupal sites are great for clients who need to update their site often or need flexibility. Using Drupal, it is easy to add a blog, create entire new sections or even create space for internal groups to work collaboratively.
Minnesota Community Land Trust Coalition
MNCLTC is a statewide coalition of Community Land Trusts (CLTs). They needed a site that reaches out to the general public, the member CLTs and policy makers.
One important component was to explain what a Community Land Trust is and how CLTs creates perpetually affordable housing.
The site features a blog, a searchable database that allows users to find a Community Land Trust in their area and stories of how CLTs have helped individuals and families.
Condo Development Web Site
Located in South Minneapolis, Spirit on Lake Housing Cooperative units are marketed to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people who are older, but still independent.
This site had three major components. 1) to feature all of the amenities of the complex, 2) to explain how a cooperative works and how it is financed, and 3) display each of the 15 floorplans.
Because the site was built in Drupal, the marketing coordinator of the development can easily update the content of the site including the meeting date and times construction news, and remaining availability.
Drupal Web Site for Environmental Nonprofit
We did the design for this web site for Women's Environmental Institute, but are not involved in the day-to-day maintenance.
This site required substantial space for all the events, workshops and educational opportunites WEI sponsors each year. Additional focus needed to be on the various projects and programs they coordinate.
Drupal was the perfect solution for WEI. Staff members and program coordinators have unique usernames and passwords that allow them to add, delete and update copy and images. Events can be easily added to the calendar and event listing at the same time.
The site also has multiple easy-to-maintain mailing lists, one of which you can subscribe to on the main page!
Drupal Web Site for Regional Nonprofit
This Drupal web site was created but not maintained by Sweet Tea Design. Midwest Coalition for Human Rights wanted their site to be news-focused; but also have ways to engage the public, students, nonprofits and academics; showcase their work; and further build the coaltion.
The homepage features recent news stories, an event calendar and list of upcoming events. We also designed a logo, business card and brochure for MCHR.
