While I feel that the givology website is certainly a wonderful site that dedicates itself to not only making the lives of others better, but the world as well, I do feel that there are improvements that can be made to the website to further facilitate this goal.

One of the things I noticed about the website when I first logged on, was the lack of user-friendliness and seemingly excess clutter. Although the menu bar helps to organize the different features of the website, it is still difficult to navigate the site fully and find what you are looking with ease. One suggestion that I could make is to use a drop-down menu to show the sub-categories of each category instead of clicking on each. While this seems simple, it helps to show all the categories of the site relatively easy and can help speed up navigation significantly.

Another suggestion I could make is to add a highlight feature on the side of the website that emphasizes a different student and/or event each day. While I am aware this feature is already available on the homepage of the website, I feel that allowing it to run continually throughout each page will not only add to the effectiveness of the highlight but will also reach those who do not always check the front page or who are simply looking at one section/page of the website per day.

Another thing that could be added the website is a forum-like feature instead of the journal or blog which allows for quicker responses and/or sharing of ideas with others. Another thought is a running feed that allows users to connect and post immediately, allowing users to share or discuss any projects or things about the website or simply just give praise easily and quickly.
