Project Summary

The YMCA of Greater Cleveland (a nonprofit) hired Five Jars to build a Drupal website with features such as automatic scheduling, a class finder, and branch-specific membership pricing. The team launched the site in July after finishing phase one and continues to add features in an ongoing engagement that began in March 2021. Since launch, the site's bounce rate has dropped by 10–15% and site visits have increased by about 10%. Five Jars also provided project management support via Basecamp and offered design guidance throughout the engagement.
