Good Work

Invisible Children is a nonprofit dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of former child soldiers and the capture of African warlord Joseph Kony. Invisible Children’s HR department is hosting “Tanked-Giving,” a Thanksgiving-themed, beer-centric event, to raise money for the nonprofit’s current 10-week fundraising campaign.

Says Christina, “Those wireframes were part of a larger exploration looking for an intuitive way to organize the student dashboard. My initial idea was to take the structure that a design or art portfolio uses and see how the interaction might fit.”
