When an organization’s mission is as powerful as rescuing and protecting Arizona’s native wildlife, its online presence must reflect that same sense of purpose and compassion.
The Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center (SWCC) needed a website that not only told its remarkable story but also inspired visitors to get involved—whether through donations, volunteering, or education.
Our team at Hammersmith Support, an Arizona-based website design and development company, was honored to partner with SWCC to create a modern, mission-driven nonprofit website that reflects the organization’s heart for conservation.
About the Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center
Located in Arizona, SWCC is a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and providing sanctuary for native wild animals that have been injured, displaced, or orphaned.
The center provides lifelong care for animals that cannot return to the wild and promotes peaceful coexistence between humans and wildlife through education and outreach programs.
By partnering with wildlife agencies and the community, SWCC plays a vital role in conserving Arizona’s native species and habitats—while inspiring respect and stewardship for the natural world.
Designing a Website That Inspires Conservation and Community Support
This nonprofit web design project focused on developing a visually engaging, strategically built website that helps SWCC connect with supporters and grow its impact.
Our design and development team focused on:
- Strengthening SWCC’s brand identity with cohesive design elements, colors, and messaging aligned with its conservation mission
- Simplifying navigation so visitors can easily find donation opportunities, volunteer programs, and event information
- Incorporating storytelling and visuals that highlight the center’s impact and inspire community involvement
“Our goal was to enhance the organization’s image, increase visitor engagement, and boost donations by effectively sharing the unique story of the Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center,” said Brooke Lowery, Client Success and Product Manager at Hammersmith Support.
Creating a Seamless, Mobile-Friendly Experience
Nonprofits rely on their websites to educate, inspire, and fundraise—so functionality was just as important as design.
We restructured the site’s backend to make it simple for SWCC staff to update pages, add new events, and adjust campaigns throughout the year—no coding required.
The new website was:
- Built on WordPress, a flexible and reliable platform for nonprofits
- Fully mobile-optimized, ensuring a seamless experience on any device
- Designed for long-term growth, supporting future capital campaigns and new initiatives
- Optimized for SEO, improving visibility for people searching for Arizona wildlife rescue and conservation programs
This balance of beauty, usability, and performance allows SWCC’s team to manage their digital presence efficiently while engaging supporters more deeply online.
“We’re thrilled with how the new site turned out! It’s made it so much easier for people to explore what we do, meet our animals, and get involved. The feedback from our supporters has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Peyton Young, Marketing Coordinator at Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center.
A Modern Website for a Mission That Matters
The result is more than a refreshed look—it’s a digital home that embodies SWCC’s compassion and commitment to wildlife preservation.
With a stronger visual identity, intuitive navigation, and an easy-to-manage backend, the new website empowers SWCC to continue its mission with greater reach and impact.
We’re proud to have partnered with the Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center to build a platform that supports their operations, grows their community, and helps protect Arizona’s wild heritage for generations to come.
