Shepherd's House

Who we Serve:

Shepherd’s House is a homeless shelter for women and children located in Tullahoma, Tennessee. They provide shelter, food, and assistance with finding a job to help families get back on their feet.

What Services Were Needed:

• Website Redesign
• Online Giving (including Text to Give)
• Newsletter signups
• SEO services
• Site Maintenance Training

The Challenge:

Before contacting Yemba, the new executive director at Shepherd’s house was rebuilding their website. Unfortunately, she didn’t have the time or web design expertise to build a reliable site while running the ministry, so they knew it was time to call in a professional.

When discussing the new website design, the board of directors wanted to include an option for online giving, particularly an option that allowed users to donate through text. They also wanted to ensure their site was mobile friendly. (Experts estimate that at least 50% of website traffic comes from mobile devices.) That’s where Yemba came in.

Our Process

As our team developed a new website for Shepherd’s house, we worked closely with the executive director to design a site and find pictures that accurately reflected their ministry. We implemented several options for online giving including a scannable QR code and Text to Give.

Along with their site redesign, our team reviewed Shepherd House’s existing content and made SEO recommendations to improve their website’s rankings. Our team trained the executive director to handle content updates and other site maintenance to keep the website up and running on her own. We also provide ongoing support when needed.
