Website for National Non-Profit Wins Award

PORTLAND, Maine — June 8, 2020 — GCMD : Granular Creative Marketing Design announced that a website built for a larger non-profit was awarded an American Web Design Award. GCMD has consistently been awarded national web design and branding awards over the past six years.

Mercy Medical Angels, a national non-profit headquartered in Virginia Beach, VA, provides long-distance medical transportation services to patients in financial need. Through their numerous patient-centric programs, they provide air and ground transportation to children, veterans, seniors, cancer patients and their caretakers who cannot afford travel expenses to specialized healthcare in locations away from their hometown.

The Mercy Medical Angels website project included developing brand messaging that resonates with the people they provide services to as well as individuals and corporate donors. Using the logo design as a visual guide, the new website uses clean design, simple graphics, and compelling images to convey the compassion this organization demonstrates daily. Finally, the website is designed to show up in a variety of online searches for accidental discovery by patients. Shortly after the new website was launched, the organization received a substantial donation and corporate sponsorship.

Mercy Medical Angels was founded in 1972 when four men in Washington, D.C. provided free medical air transportation to needy patients. In 2019, they provided over 17,000 trips to long-distance healthcare and clinical treatment, restoring hope and health to patients in need.

Over the past 10 years, GCMD has transformed its services from a freelance to a multi-team agency building simple to complex websites, creating branding strategies and developing traditional and digital marketing that connects with customers. They work primarily with mid-sized and larger businesses, B2B, medical practices and non-profits
