In Focus: Interview with Todd Levy, CEO at DonorDrive®, United States

We initially began as a website and custom internet programming company. We worked with many Fortune 500 clients including Procter & Gamble, News Corp, Fox Studios and many to large organizations. In 2001, we began work for Juvenile Diabetes Foundation International where custom created among the first Peer to Peer fundraising solutions with social media integration along with a dozen other custom applications to support juvenile diabetes. This work led to our development of the DonorDrive peer-to-peer fundraising platform in 2007. Today, we serve hundreds of clients with our platform and services.

Since our founding, design solutions were based on solid strategic insights and leadership. We are most proud that in our 20+ years of business because our designs continue to be relevant and best serve our clients communication needs. I am so proud of the dedicated, hard-working design team for their creativity to best serve our client’s needs. I’m thrilled that others outside of our organization give our designers the recognition they deserve.

I believe that while our tools will evolve, the ability of the individual designer to create award winning, business building work is paramount by continuing to connect with individuals. Machines cannot replace the personal connection that designers create. I believe there will continue to be trends that many follow, but good design will continue to solve strategic communication challenges.

1. We are helping our clients heal the world. 2. Our industry embraces innovation. 3. We facilitate personal connections in the tech-heavy world.

I believe that the U.S. has been and will to be the leader in innovation and creativity. Our dedication to design and problem solving will remain our point of difference in the world. Others my out-manufacture us, but the U.S. will continue to lead innovation and design leadership.

Be passionate about your work and a student of everything around you. You’ll find new solutions to problems that others never dreamed of.

Passion, persistence and most importantly, an insatiable desire to learn how things work.
