EDuGIFT – gifting for schools

We’re pleased to announce our new partnership with the UK-based organisation, EDuGIFT.

EDuGIFT is an online platform which provides a way for parents and the local community to help support teaching and learning in schools.

Schools can post details of items they would like to have but which they might not normally buy.

Parents can see what’s needed and then, if they would like to, they can buy or donate those items to their school.

Schools can create an account and manage their requests through a dashboard, updating and deleting posts as needed. Community members can browse their school’s page, view the requested items, and choose what they wish to contribute.

“By using EDuGIFT, your donations can be targeted at specific needs which only your school knows about. Your gifts help school budgets go further. Your generosity will boost teaching and learning. But best of all, you’re really making a difference to the lives of the pupils.”

Our involvement

We provided consultation, graphic design and logo design services, created website wireframes and tested those with focus groups, built the site and now host and maintain it for the EDuGIFT team. The site is integrated with a third-party CRM system providing weekly email alerts to new items in segmented lists.

Feedback from pilot schools has been positive and we hope to see more schools using the platform in the near future.

If you are interested and would like your school to participate, please tell them about the EDuGIFT website.
