Texas-based fd2s installs donor kiosks in University of Texas cancer center
November 2, 2009
Austin, Texas-based fd2s, a wayfinding and environmental graphic-design consultancy, today announced the completion of a donor kiosk system for the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.
According to a news release from fd2s, visitors to the cancer center can use the kiosks to browse content about M.D. Anderson and its donors, learn about volunteer opportunities and make donations via credit card. Fd2s says the kiosks feature embedded keyboards and flat-panel displays, in addition to a topper display that plays M.D. Anderson commercials on an attract loop. The center's fundraising staff is able to update the kiosks' play loops using a Web-based content management system. The kiosks' enclosures were manufactured and installed by Imagecraft Exhibits of Austin, fd2s says.
Steve Stamper, principal at fd2s, says interactive components are an innovative complement to traditional donor-recognition efforts:
The thing that makes these kiosks really interesting is their ability to bring so many aspects of the fundraising process together in one place. You can educate people about the institution's mission, share information about people or groups that have contributed in the past and give them a chance to participate themselves. I think that there will always be a place for traditional recognition elements like donor walls, but we believe that interactive components like these are a great complement to these types of installations and can even be integrated with them, and we're looking forward to creating similar systems for other institutions.
Fd2s has developed similar donor-recognition solutions for other medical institutions in Houston and Austin, Texas, Little Rock, Ark. and Kansas City.
