Case Study: Empowering Heart Care in Rural India

Client: Mumbai-Based NGO | Focus: Media Aid & Fundraising for Rural Heart Patients

The Mission

The NGO’s mission was clear: raise awareness and funding for underprivileged heart patients in India’s villages who lack access to timely treatment. With limited digital presence, they needed help to build credibility, drive donations, and spread their message.

Challenges

  • Low online visibility: No website or SEO strategy to reach potential donors.
  • Inefficient donation funnel: No structured campaign or CTA to encourage contributions.
  • Limited brand awareness: Their impact in rural communities was undocumented and unseen.
  • Minimal social media presence: No Facebook or LinkedIn engagement with donors or sponsors.
