What the Judges are Saying
I like the functionality of your site. It was pretty straight forward. I think providing links, offering information and bringing awareness of how homelessness occurs is a. good touch on how to teach this students. Great use of easy to reach table topper information. Offering steps was a nice touch as well.
The topic is extremely relevant and I think the message is good that we can all help combat it. The awareness aspect on this topic is a great thing. Some suggestions under How to Combat it- I would provide links here too on places people can volunteer or donate to or other resource links for people who want to volunteer. I would also make the pictures on the website bigger to reinforce the key elements, maybe some more moving visuals or bolded and larger words and put more pictures on the Stats page as that page is eye opening. But a great message on homelessness isn’t a choice and a great start on a website!
