Driving Impact Through Digital Innovation: Crowd for Causes and VOC

Alex Schupp • March 3, 2025

At Crowd for Causes, we believe that a well-designed website is more than just a digital presence—it’s a tool for engagement, fundraising, and driving social impact. One of our standout projects this year has been our work with VOC (www.voc.org), a nonprofit dedicated to outdoor stewardship and volunteerism. VOC has been a leader in preserving Colorado’s natural spaces and empowering communities to take action through volunteer opportunities, education, and advocacy.

Enhancing VOC’s Online Presence

VOC needed a website that effectively showcased its mission, engaged volunteers, and facilitated communication with its community. With thousands of annual volunteers and numerous projects across the state, VOC required a platform that could keep up with its expanding needs. Through a strategic approach to web design and digital marketing, we helped them achieve these goals by creating a user-friendly, visually appealing, and functionality-driven website.

Key Features of the New Website:

  • Mobile-Friendly Design: Ensuring seamless access across all devices for volunteers on the go.
  • Intuitive Navigation: Making it easier for visitors to find volunteer opportunities, upcoming events, and essential resources.
  • Streamlined Communication Tools: Optimizing contact points to connect potential volunteers with VOC’s team quickly and efficiently.
  • SEO Optimization: Enhancing online visibility to attract more volunteers, donors, and corporate partners.
  • Integrated Event & Signup System: Simplifying the process of joining a project, ensuring higher participation rates.
  • Impact Storytelling: Highlighting the real-world change VOC brings to Colorado’s landscapes through engaging content and visuals.

The Results: Measurable Growth and Engagement

Since the launch of the revamped website, VOC has seen significant improvements in key performance metrics:

  • 1,887 Form Submissions: A testament to increased volunteer interest and engagement.
  • 988 Clicks to Email VOC’s Team: Making it easier for volunteers and partners to connect directly with the organization.
  • 755 Clicks to Call: A streamlined communication process leading to more direct interactions, inquiries, and volunteer sign-ups.
  • Over 100,000 Page Views: Demonstrating a substantial increase in visibility and audience engagement.


Beyond these numbers, VOC has also reported greater ease in managing volunteer signups and increased traffic from search engines, thanks to the SEO strategies implemented in the new website.

The Power of Digital Storytelling for Nonprofits

This project highlights the impact of strategic website design and digital marketing in helping nonprofits achieve their mission. A well-crafted website is more than just a tool—it’s a bridge that connects organizations with their communities, inspiring action and making real change possible. Whether it's increasing volunteer participation, facilitating donations, or amplifying a mission’s reach, digital solutions play a vital role in nonprofit success.



At Crowd for Causes, we specialize in nonprofit website design, fundraising support, and Google Ad Grants management, helping organizations like VOC expand their reach and impact. Our team is passionate about creating meaningful digital experiences that drive real-world results.

At Crowd for Causes, we believe that a powerful mission deserves a powerful digital presence. That’s why we’re proud to announce that we’re partnering with the Conservation Lands Foundation to migrate their website to the Duda platform. The Conservation Lands Foundation is on the front lines of protecting America’s public lands and waters—spaces that are essential not only to our country’s identity but to our environment, economy, and communities. Their mission is clear: to protect, restore, and expand the National Conservation Lands through education, advocacy, and partnerships .  From national monuments to wilderness areas, the Foundation works to ensure that these irreplaceable landscapes are safeguarded from exploitation and preserved for future generations. In the face of mounting threats—including the largest public lands sell-off in U.S. history—their leadership is more important than ever. With an unwavering commitment to advocacy, they amplify the voices of people who believe that America’s public lands are not for sale .

At Crowd for Causes, we believe in using design to drive impact. That’s why we were proud to partner with Conejo Free Clinic , a vital nonprofit offering free medical, dental, and legal services to those in need throughout Ventura and Los Angeles Counties. For over 40 years, Conejo Free Clinic has served as a beacon of hope for individuals and families who face financial, systemic, or language barriers to care. From routine medical checkups and dental cleanings to complex legal guidance, their team of compassionate professionals and volunteers ensures that no one is left behind. Whether it's a patient receiving life-changing dental work or someone finding legal clarity through a volunteer attorney, the stories of transformation coming out of this clinic are truly inspiring.  When Conejo Free Clinic approached Crowd for Causes, their website didn’t fully reflect the life-saving work they do every day. Our mission was to create a digital home that’s as welcoming and accessible as the care they provide .

Every spring, Breckenridge restaurants face the same challenge: a noticeable dip in foot traffic once ski season wraps up. But thanks to an innovative partnership between local restaurants, community leaders, and the team at Crowd for Causes, the 2025 Breckenridge Dining Passport is changing that narrative—and making a real difference for both businesses and students.  This digital dining passport, featured recently on CBS News, offers locals and visitors access to exclusive deals at 30+ Breckenridge restaurants. For a small fee, diners unlock limited-time offers while supporting a larger mission: funding scholarships for local students.
