Millennium Development Goals – Pledges site

We were approached by our client, Portland Communications, to design and build a site within a ten day window.  They had an idea of the general functionality they were after but we were asked to suggest the IA and any other features.  We were working with their New York office and pulled some very lat nights to get this signed off and into production to meet the go-live deadline.
 
6 days after the sign off of the designs we were testing the finished application and were able to go live within the deadline.  AJ deserves particular credit for his had work on the design and Chris for holding the project together ensuring delivery.
 
 The site aims to attract corporates to donate “pledges” to help meet the 8 “Milenium Development Goals” set out by world leaders at the turn of the millennium.  To date the site has attracted 64 pledges that aim to touch the lives of 65 million people.
