Customedialabs Revitalizes Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House's Online Presence

Customedialabs, an interactive media agency, today announces the launch of a new online home for the first house that love built, the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House.

November 11, 2009
Philadelphia, PA, November 11, 2009 — customedialabs, an interactive media agency, today announces the launch of a new online home for the “first house that love built,” the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House.

Launched in time for the holidays, the modern, user-friendly website has a highly personal and emotional look and feel, a design approach that customedialabs took to help increase awareness of the 35-year-old charity, recruit more volunteers and boost donations.

Because the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House website incorporates a range of time-sensitive information, including recent news, events and photo galleries, it was critical for customedialabs to not only enhance the site’s user experience but to also give it scalability and room to grow. By providing an easy method of updating and editing content through TYPO3, an enterprise-level open source content management system, customedialabs has made the navigation on the back and front ends of the site simple and easy to understand for both external users and the charity’s staff.

“Our new site not only meets but exceeds our needs, and is both gorgeous and functional as well,” said Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House staff of its new website, www.philarmh.org. “On the back end, the site is straightforward and intuitive, which makes it a pleasure to update… the experience and the outcome were even better than we could have hoped for.”

In addition to creating a fresh design and implementing a tailored content management system, customedialabs also updated the website’s donation forms, integrated Google Maps on the locations page and incorporated send-to-a-friend functionality on individual site pages to optimize opportunities for volunteering and donating.
