Case Study
For over a decade, our team has partnered with the Animal Welfare League of Arlington (AWLA) to advance their 80-year mission of keeping animals healthy, happy, and home. Through two major website redesigns and continued strategic and technical support, we've helped transform AWLA's digital presence into a powerful platform that serves both animals and the Arlington community.
We created a website that integrates multiple key systems, including Petango for real-time adoptable pet listings and Blackbaud for secure, on-site donations. This foundation supports AWLA's wide range of services—from pet adoptions and fostering to community programs like pet pantries, educational workshops, and animal control services.
A streamlined pet browsing experience has directly contributed to increased adoptions. The website is fully responsive, to ensure accessibility for AWLA's large mobile user base, and the integrated donation system has significantly boosted their fundraising capabilities.
By reducing total cost of ownership while driving substantial increases in website traffic, donation volume, and pet adoptions, we're proud to have helped AWLA strengthen their commitment to going "All in For Animals."

- Seamless integration with Petango for adoptable pet listings.
- Significant increases in donations and adoptions since website launch.
- An intuitive event management system helps AWLA promote microchip clinics and more.

The AWLA website is integrated with Petango for an automatic sync of adoptable pets, enabling the AWLA staff to spend more time with their animals and less time managing the website.
AWLA's significant mobile user base called for a responsive site that was accessible and performative, allowing people to browse adoptable pets from anywhere, on any device.

The team at Yoko Co has been so professional, creative, patient, and fun to work with! You read our minds about what we wanted, and even added in things we never knew we wanted. Amazing!
