Justifying an Evaluation: Feeding America. Alex Bennett Owens Community College Composition 1, Mr. Klever 9/24/24 Justifying an Evaluation: Feeding America With the internet becoming bigger and bigger every day, many charities and non-profit organizations have created websites to catch up with the ever-changing times. However, just because an organization has a website does not mean that it has effectively caught up, and can seem even farther behind if the website is done poorly. A well-made website can improve an organization’s overall image, and even encourage more donations. Feeding America is one such non-profit organization with an online website that can be visited.

It is very easy to get back to the main page at any time from the navigation bar by clicking on the Feeding America logo. At the bottom of every page of the website, there is, like most websites, a little black space leading to parts of the website that cannot be found using the navigation bar. With four main sections, which include links to pages about the organization, links to some research sources, ways to help the organization, and links to specific parts of the hunger facts page. Quantity of Information There is a large quantity of information that can be found on the website about the organization, what it does, and about hunger in America. As was said before, these main categories of information each have an entire page dedicated to them. To begin with, the page titled “Hunger in America” is dedicated to facts about hunger. From how many people suffer from hunger to which race experiences it the most, and even how many children are affected by hunger, there are tons of facts on this page.

Sometimes, it can be tough to tell what someone is looking at, leading to frustration. There are no section dividers to differentiate from one another, which can make it burdensome. While it is easy for some users to find themselves lost, it is also short and does not have much information. While there is no denying that the main page is cluttered, using some of the ways of navigating around the website can help resolve the issue. Every section has a whole page dedicated to it. In each section is a button or a link to click which will lead to more information on a separate tab. At the bottom of the main page, like every page, is the black area which leads to a variety of other pages. With the page being as short as it is, it makes it easier to find the black space and navigate to other pages. Conclusion Although the website may seem like a small part of a non-profit organization, it is a strenuous deal to include one. With the time we live in, a website has to be easy to access to allow volunteers easier to find, and donations easier to obtain. Just having a website is one step, but having a quality one is a whole other step. Creating a high-quality website is one step closer to spreading awareness for a good cause. Feeding America has succeeded in creating an exceptional website with ease of navigation around the website, the quantity of information it has, and by making it much easier to
