QCTouch - RRFB Edition

Home screen for the Roadrunner Food Bank interactive experience

Deployed for the Roadrunner Food Bank Souper Bowl

Roadrunner Food Bank, New Mexico's largest food bank, hosts an annual event called the "Souper Bowl" to raise money and awareness. I had the idea to create an RRFB interactive experience for the event to give people a way to learn about the food bank while they waited in the lobby. I pitched it to my old boss who worked there and they said if I could do it in time they'd be happy to have it for the event. I had around a week - so I gathered information from their published resources, designed a story flow, created some interactive questionaires, and put them together into a coherent experience. I was able to leverage our existing system, adding in new interactive modes and styling to make the experience fix the food bank. The night before the event I deployed the system, and the next day it gave attendees a new way to learn about the food bank's work.

Lessons Learned

It was awesome to be able to put something together so quickly. It was a great validation that the system we had implemented for QCTouch was flexible beyond our corporate use cases. It was also a good exercise in designing around a story, since I wanted to keep the focus on the food bank rather than on flashy tech. I know many people stopped to use it and take a look around, and I hope that they learned something interesting and that the food bank received more support as a result.
