The Challenge: Warrior Songs, Inc. is just a tremendous non-profit organization that does outstanding work to help veterans heal through the creative arts. They came to GoatCloud needing a revamp of a site that did little more than convey what the organization was about. Admittedly, design was not paramount for the old site.

The Solution: We designed a great looking WordPress website for Warrior Songs that is very easy to navigate and renders very well on a small screen. The organization is all about multimedia. We used SoundCloud to enable visitors to play songs related to Warrior Songs’ work and deployed a theme that permits the easy featuring of video. Because the organization schedules many events throughout the year, we installed a calendar function that permits easy access to all the group’s terrific events and functions.
