Inspiration

After seeing the effects of the coronavirus around the world, guilt seeped through us, as all we wished for was for the past to return to us, but in reality, there are those who are simply trying to see a tomorrow. Bringing awareness to the impoverished children and families suffering during these tough times will hopefully get people to donate to alleviate their financial stress.

When you press a button, a random fact card will pop up featuring the SDG it falls under and the link to a random charity associated with the SDG.

How we built it

We modelled our design based on a previous web application that one of our group members was working on. This kickstarted our motivation to persevere through difficult problems.

Challenges we ran into

Code side, we ran into a few hurdles. It was the first time for a lot of group members using the programs used. We were not familiar with web design due to inexperience.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

It functions to accomplish its desired task. We were able to use our newly found knowledge to support a good cause such as charities. And although we could not get our website hosted, we learnt a lot trying.
