Lasova volunteers list

What is Lasova?

The Lasova Organization helps those in need, including poor individuals, elders, and children. We were tasked with building a volunteer management system to improve the organization's efficiency.

The Team

Our team collaborated and developed a new design that met the organization's administrative requirements. We conducted research, including interviews, to inform our design choices. In the end, we were able to create a clear plan for the user flows and interfaces that would be enjoyable to use.

The Challenge

The work at Lasova was disorganized. As a result of the lack of organization, there were issues with

Waste of time

By using multiple platforms we are limited with our actions and depend on number of platforms

Manual actions

Using actual papers in order to do tasks instead of digitally do it

Volunteers help too

We designed a mobile version for the volunteers so they can enter their volunteering time instead of the managers

The Projects Goal

Design and develop a volunteer management system for Lasova, taking into consideration the needs of the organization and the needs of the volunteers on a daily basis.

1

Save time

Gather all the information into one place including register site that automatically connects

2

Efficient ecosystem

One platform for all the tasks an organization needed

3

Easier interface

Easy to integrate daily tasks that work the same way they used to work

User interview

Our task was to revitalize a dormant project by creating a well-planned and designed project with a design system and implementing it. We achieved this by gathering the requirements from the volunteer relations manager and working closely with the director to develop the necessary screens.

design process

In order to understand their problem and our actions to get to the solution we used the design thinking method

  1. Step 01

    Empathize

    01

    We surveyed the people in charge of managing the non-profit organization, tried to identify their pain points, and figure out which actions are most important to them and which roles require the most use in the system.

  2. Step 02

    Define

    02

    Understand that their system wasn't meeting all their needs, so they were wasting a lot of time on communication between volunteers and managers of volunteer, and a lack of organization in their Excel files.

  3. Step 03

    Ideate

    03

    We had a few ideas that we thought about. After narrowing down the options to the specific solution, we created a simple and intuitive interface, the ability to work with automatic options, and tracking of volunteer status.

    We created a user-friendly interface to improve the customer experience and streamline complicated processes.

    We set up automatic sync with the charity's website for direct lead entry into the system.

    We added volunteer tracking so we can quickly and efficiently track the number of volunteers.

  4. Step 04

    Prototype

    04

    We created a basic MVP for use by the charity's managers to test the system's accuracy and gather initial data.

  5. Step 05

    Test

    05

    Collecting information, reducing clutter, and gathering conclusions about the use of existing widgets, button placement, and other components to create a more specific and improved version for the customer.

final result

We streamlined the process of matching volunteers and tracking progress with a user-friendly interface and automatic website sync. This improved efficiency and satisfaction for all involved.
