What it does
There are two parts to this project that I've worked on:
Web Application
The web application informs students of how to participate, then leads them to a form where they can submit their email, gift preferences, and price range. I worked mostly on the design of the web app-- using HTML/CSS to design the layout of the website, and Adobe Illustrator to create Christmas-themed art as well as the website logo.

Logistic Tools
The logistic tools were separate from the web application (besides sharing participants' data), which handled sending emails, reminders, and package labels to participants to ensure that all gifts would be send on time. The main function of logistic tools was to send each person information about who their match was, which avoided the need for us to manually sift through each pairing and send separate emails to each person.

What's next for Big Red Gifts
Will hopefully run it again this year!
