The challenge

An important mission deserved a stronger digital presence.

Euro Dogs DGM rescues abandoned dogs in Constanța, Romania. Its main website is written for a Romanian audience.

To reach supporters in the UK, the charity needed a separate front door: a site in English, with donations in pounds, that explains the work clearly and makes it easy to help from a thousand miles away.

The aim: help a UK visitor understand the mission, trust it and act on it, in a few minutes, on any device.

Digital marketing for charities

Taking the mission beyond the website.

The social launch had one job: introduce UK supporters to real rescue stories and bring them to the website, where they can learn more and donate.

Source: Meta Insights for the Euro Dogs DGM UK Facebook page and Instagram account. Period: first 7 days after launch. Limitations: brand-new pages with no earlier period to compare against. Meta rounds views, doesn't separate organic and paid reach, and link clicks aren't donations.

Build awareness

Introduce the charity to UK audiences.

Establish trust

Consistent branding that matches the website.

Tell real stories

Named dogs and genuine rescue journeys.

Drive to the website

Posts point to the next step on the website.

The design details

Nonprofit web design, done with care.

User experience

A clear structure that answers a supporter's questions in order: who are you, who are the dogs, how can I help, where does my money go?

  • Seven focused main pages
  • Consistent navigation and calls to action

Responsive design

Every page was designed and tested for phones as well as tablet and desktop, because visitors from social media arrive on their phones.

  • Full-width buttons that are easy to tap
  • Readable text and portraits that aren't awkwardly cropped

  • "Donate Now" in the header on every page
  • A transparency page that supports the ask

Storytelling

Individual dogs get room to be seen, with large portraits, their names and short stories that turn a cause into a connection.

  • Dedicated Meet Our Dogs page
  • Rescue projects explained on Our Projects

Search visibility

Clear headings, descriptive content and internal links between pages. Each page also has its own search title and description written for UK searches.

  • Unique SEO titles and meta descriptions
  • Pages linked so visitors and Google can follow the journey
