Dashboard for Grant Applications Management

Dashboard for Grant Applications Management

My Role: UX Designer
Team: UX Designers, Engineers, Client Stakeholders

About the Project

I worked as part of a cross-functional team to design a dashboard system that helps funder organizations manage applications and grants for nonprofit organizations. Our goal was to create a more organized, transparent, and user-friendly way for both funders and nonprofits to track grant progress.

The Challenge

The existing process was complex and difficult to manage. Users needed a clear way to view and update timelines, funding amounts, budgets, and next steps — while ensuring both sides (funders and nonprofits) had real-time visibility into the status of each grant.

My Responsibilities

  • Collaborated closely with other UX designers, engineers, and the client to define user needs and pain points

  • Helped simplify complex workflows into intuitive, actionable dashboard components

  • Designed solutions that made updating timelines, budgets, and deliverables seamless and accessible

  • Ensured the system supported transparency and easy communication between all parties involved

Outcome

The final dashboard significantly improved grant tracking efficiency and reduced confusion for both funders and nonprofit partners. It offered a clear, centralized view of all key grant details, deadlines, and next steps.
