LOOP WEBSITE BRIEF
Liberation of Oppressed People
Website content, structure, programs, and design direction
Organization Name
Liberation of Oppressed People (LOOP)
Website Purpose
LOOP is a nonprofit helping youth, families, and justice-impacted individuals overcome barriers
through housing, reentry, education, transportation, employment, family support, and community
resources.
Overall Website Goal
The website should feel like a real, established nonprofit organization: professional, trustworthy,
community-centered, powerful, modern, and easy to navigate. It should clearly communicate who
LOOP serves, what we do, how people can receive help, and how others can volunteer, partner, or
donate.

explaining what LOOP does.
Place clear call-to-action buttons directly below the hero section:
   Get Support

Follow with a short “Who We Are” section and then display LOOP’s main programs visually in

statistics such as families served, youth served, housing support provided, transportation trips, court

and support for individuals and families navigating the justice system.

Design Style
The site should be modern, bold, clean, professional, and nonprofit-focused. The LOOP logo is black
and white, so the design should work around that branding without feeling dull. Use white space,
strong typography, large photos, clean sections, subtle movement or animation, and bold calls to
action.
Avoid an overly corporate, outdated, cluttered, or generic charity-template look. The website should
look polished on both desktop and mobile, with special attention to mobile users.

new locations, programs, events, impact data, and resources over time.
Website Management
The website should be built so LOOP can easily add or update events, photos, programs,
announcements, impact numbers, and other content without needing a developer for every change.
