The challenge: When the Alo!Mik Foundation approached us with the goal of refreshing their existing website and managing two other sites pertaining to their work, we knew we had our work cut out for us. The decision was made to combine all three websites into one, resulting in a redesigned and re-organized website that would serve the foundation’s needs more effectively.
Our team worked closely with the Alo!Mik Foundation to develop a custom WordPress site using Thrive Themes, ensuring that the site was tailored to their specific needs and maintained their visual and branding. Different forms and videos were integrated into the site, and Lightboxes were used to enhance user experience.
The project was divided into five phases, including project charter and materials, planning, execution, control and handover, and feedback. Throughout the project, our team worked closely with the Alo!Mik Foundation to ensure that their specific goals and needs were met.
Thanks to these efforts, the project was a success, with the redesigned website streamlining the foundation’s online presence and making it easier for users to access the information they need. Specific metrics such as website traffic or engagement could also be provided to demonstrate the success of the project.
Our agency is proud to have worked with the Alo!Mik Foundation on this project and looks forward to continuing our partnership in the future.

2026 Update — From Website to Fundraising Platform
Three years after we consolidated the foundation’s online presence into a single custom WordPress site, Alo!Mik came back to us with a bigger goal: turn that website from an information hub into an active fundraising and registration platform — one that could accept donations and summer-camp sign-ups directly, in every language their community speaks.
The challenge
The foundation serves a genuinely trilingual audience — Albanian families at home, plus a French- and English-speaking diaspora across Europe. To raise money and fill its summer camp online, it needed to accept donations of any amount, sell camp places with a two-installment option, collect the right details for each participant, work in Albanian, English and French (including confirmation emails in the donor’s own language), and process payments through a local Albanian gateway, in Lek.
What we built
- A WooCommerce-powered donation system with a flexible-amount form on a redesigned, full-screen donation page.
- A camp-registration system built on two installment products, with a streamlined per-participant form.
- POK Payments integration — a native Albanian payment gateway — settling locally in Lek.
- A language- and type-aware transactional email system: every supporter receives a tailored confirmation in their own language, with the right message for what they did.
- A prominent ‘Donate’ call-to-action across the trilingual navigation, each language linking to its own donation page.
Why it matters
The foundation now owns a self-service fundraising and registration channel that runs in three languages, settles in local currency, and confirms every transaction in the supporter’s language — removing exactly the friction that stops people from giving or signing up.
Project elements (2026 phase): WooCommerce donation & e-commerce layer · WPML trilingual (sq/en/fr) · POK Payments (Albanian gateway) · installment camp ticketing with per-participant data · custom language- and type-specific transactional emails.
An ongoing partnership: from rebuilding the foundation’s presence in 2022 to powering its online fundraising in 2026.
