The problem
COSDEP does the kind of grassroots work — sustainable agriculture, value addition, kitchen gardening — that donors and partners fund when they can see it. But without a strong, credible web presence, that story wasn't reaching the people who could support it or the communities who could benefit.
My approach
I designed a clean, mission-first site that leads with the work: programmes, projects and clear ways to get involved, anchored by a strong 'Turning harvests into income' hero and prominent donate paths. It's built on a fast Next.js stack with all content in one editable source, so the team can keep it current without a developer.
How it's built
- Next.js 16 App Router with static export — fast, secure, cheap to host.
- Programmes, projects and get-involved sections driven by a typed content model.
- Prominent donate and partnership calls-to-action throughout the journey.
- SEO, Open Graph, sitemap and JSON-LD so the mission is discoverable.
Highlights
- A mission-first layout that puts programmes and impact front and centre.
- Fast, mobile-first experience for a largely mobile Kenyan audience.
- Clear donate and get-involved paths to convert visitors into supporters.
