Heart Pumping Appeal

Taking a client's website presence to the next level is always a goal for White Lion.  Marathon Kids is the leading and longest standing kids' health and fitness non-profit organization, but with other organizations surfacing, Marathon Kids needed a leading edge website to stay on top.  With a target audience spanning from 4 to 104 years old, we produced a high energy design coupled with cutting-edge technology to engage all audiences for a fantastic cause.

The site allows the Marathon Kids team to manage events, volunteers, donations and fundraisers across multiple states through a custom built backend reporting, profile, and finance administration tool.

Marathon Kids is a free, thirteen year old community-based fitness program that includes a six month building/running marathon and a nutrition and schoolyard gardening education for schools and families.  The program helps over 180,000 kids in seven different cities learn and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

testimonials:

Yes, I would absolutely recommend White Lion!  Our Project Manager has been a key component through the entire process from start to present.  Having that level of consistency from White Lion provides us with reassurance that our needs are known and that they will be met.  White Lion has kept us on time and budget, is willing to work with our sometimes urgent needs, and checks in with us regularly to make sure their services exceed expectation.
