Case Study: Lucky Dog Rescue achieves scalable collaboration and a modern web presence with Avanade

Lucky Dog Rescue Adopts Scalable Platform To Drive Collaboration And Marketing

Lucky Dog Rescue is an all‑volunteer Houston non‑profit that has rescued and placed hundreds of homeless dogs since 2009. Rapid growth exposed weaknesses in its homegrown technology and website: volunteers struggled with a cumbersome tracking system, mobile access and content updates were limited, and donor and volunteer communications were inefficient and costly.

Avanade implemented a cloud‑based solution using SharePoint 2013 and Office 365, automated manual processes, built a responsive HTML5 website and refreshed the brand. The result is a single source of truth for each dog, a unified volunteer/donor database, an intuitive content management process that lets volunteers publish updates and photos quickly, and a scalable platform that improves outreach and the organization’s ability to rescue more dogs.
