The Opportunity
SickKids, Canada’s leading children’s hospital and a globally recognized research institution, relies heavily on digital donations to support its work. Initially, they came to us with a focused need: optimize their donation flow to improve conversions. After the success of that work, they returned following a major rebrand, looking for a partner who could bring their updated visual identity to life in a way that was both digitally functional and fully accessible. The challenge was clear: preserve the energy of the new VS campaign, enhance usability, and ensure AODA compliance, all within a flexible, scalable digital system.

We also ensured that content flexibility and SEO-readiness were built in from day one.
Insights & Evolution
This engagement reinforced the value of design systems over static deliverables. By pairing brand integrity with accessibility and UX logic, we helped SickKids move beyond the limitations of one-off builds and toward a system that’s scalable, testable, and fully future-proof.
