Terre des Hommes | "Oranges" Online Marketing Campaign
A WordPress and WooCommerce-based online campaign.
The goal was to help the NGO raise some money online with the current COVID-19 situation. Together with the company Superhuit, we proposed and developed a mini-game concept according to the company message and guidelines. After playing and getting the best score, the user was motivated to convert his score into a real donation. The campaign ran for one month and the fallouts have been excellent.
