Mama Cash is a large International organisation, lending this project some additional challenges of communicating and collaborating on a truly international basis – with teams based in different continents, languages and time zones. This was a collaboration over almost two years.
The charity needed a website redesign and rebuild to enable visitors to more easily find information and understand Mama Cash’s mission.
They required the ability to translate content into 5 different languages with granular control – since automatic browser translation was not sufficient for the sensitive and nuanced nature of their writing. We undertook extensive research of the different translation tools available to WordPress before settling on WPML – based on cost and flexibility. Through the system we set up, they are able to automate the bulk of translation but have the copy manually checked and edited by native speakers of English, Dutch, French, Russian and Spanish.
The website also integrates with their FundraiseUp donation platform, allowing supporters to make donations.
As the only female developer at Wholegrain, it was important to Mama Cash that I take the lead on this website build.
