Volunteer Iowa launched a newly redesigned website which serves
as the central hub for information on service and volunteerism in
the state of Iowa. The website, which can be found at
www.volunteeriowa.org, uses a responsive design enabling visitors
to use their smartphones or tablets with the same functionality as
visitors using a desktop computer.
“The new, user-friendly website will allow us to better tell the
stories of service, promote quality resources, and provide a portal
for connecting individuals and groups with volunteer and service
opportunities,” said Adam Lounsbury, Volunteer Iowa Executive
Director. “Keeping our website up-to-date with the latest
technology while providing user-friendly functionality is important
to us, especially with the increasing dependence on mobile devices
in today’s culture.”
Users can access information about Volunteer Iowa’s many
programs, resources and initiatives, including the Iowa Mentoring
Partnership, AmeriCorps, and the Service Enterprise Initiative.
Visitors can also easily find the latest volunteering and service
news, research and resources.
The website was redesigned in partnership with Iowa Interactive,
LLC, of Des Moines. Volunteer Iowa and Iowa Interactive operate
under a self-funded model in which no additional tax dollars were
used to develop or maintain the website.
The Volunteer Iowa website is the thirteenth state agency to
implement Iowa Interactive’s content management system (CMS). In
addition to the CMS product, Iowa Interactive manages the state’s
official Web portal, Iowa.gov, and specializes in other online
government applications.
About Volunteer Iowa (or Iowa Commission on Volunteer
Service)
Volunteer Iowa and its partner agencies work with organizations
and individuals on three main fronts. The first is to help agencies
develop quality programs that use service as a strategy to fulfill
their missions and address Iowa’s greatest areas of need. The
second is to help engage Iowans in their communities by promoting
service and expanding the volunteer base. Finally, the third area
of work is to connect individuals with appropriate service
opportunities by building the volunteer infrastructure. More
information is available at www.volunteeriowa.org.
