|  | Creating Awareness for National Credit Union Foundation | | | Working closely with NCUF's executive staff Acumium was able to determine their e-business needs. The major challenge was to increase NCUF's awareness with a strong web presence, while strengthening its branding by integrating its new website design with existing marketing collateral. |

- Integrate with NCUF's existing database
- Bring a human quality dimension to the website;
- Automate administrative functions of NCUF staff;
