Inspiration

Seeing as how in just a short while, the Covid-19 has impacted each and everyone's lives. I know there are a lot of donation websites out there, but a lot of them are not visually appealing, give correct information, and have a user-friendly user interface. I wanted to create something that gives hope that we all can fight this through together.

What it does

This site has links to educate the public. The links take you to the World Health Organization's Covid-19 website as they are trying to educate that we should always follow their website for the most up to date and most accurate information. The website also has a donation form page for people to help further by not only social distancing, but also by providing Covid-19 relief funds.

How I built it

I used html, css, and bootstrap to create the site.

Challenges I ran into

Adding a donation form to the website was a bit tricky. Currently, I'm not sure about the security aspect of the form, so I would like to next spend time working on making the form more secure. Another challenge I ran into was creating a visually appealing site in a short amount of time. If I had more time, I would have conducted user studies to see what most people find appealing and user friendly.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I am proud that I was able to educate my audience, provide relief to the sick and our health care workers, and create a user-friendly UI for users. I also like how my website is more inspirational and not daunting as many donation websites can be.

What I learned

I learned that we all have our part in helping #STOPTHEVIRUS. Most of us are sitting at home practicing social distancing, so it feels like we are not doing much, but we are. I wanted to do something from my home that can help people, which was to create a donation and information giving website.
