Poway Woman's Club
Modernizing a 65-year-old community nonprofit's web presence with member portals, online payments, and a fresh UI — while preserving the heart of the original site.
Poway Woman's Club — Website Refurbishment
A design-based research capstone rebuilding the website of a 65-year-old community nonprofit with member portals, online payments, and a cohesive modern UI.
In DevelopmentWho We Are
We're a team of three students partnering with the Poway Woman's Club — a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1960 and affiliated with the General Federation of Women's Clubs International.
What We're Building
We're rebuilding their website from the ground up: a responsive member portal, an interactive event calendar, an online dues payment flow, and an admin dashboard that lets club leaders manage content without touching code.
Why It Matters
The club has served Poway for over six decades through scholarships, art exhibits, library support, and youth leadership programs. Our goal is to make that mission clear to every visitor and remove friction from joining, paying dues, and staying connected between meetings.
