Lowering the threshold to help others

Slachtofferhulp Nederland was facing a challenge: many people wanted to join the organization but didn’t feel qualified. People felt like it was too hard or they didn’t have the right education. With the new 'Working at Slachtofferhulp' website, our goal was to show that anyone could contribute, regardless of education or prior experience.

Designing through real stories

At Kaliber, I designed the website to make this message tangible and relatable. The core idea was simple: let the people already working at Slachtofferhulp tell their stories. I designed quote components that let employees and volunteers share their experiences. These notes that look handwritten appear throughout the website, making the platform feel personal and encouraging.

A visual language of safety and trust

The visual design reinforces safety and approachability: soft colors create a calm environment, while portrait photos make the organization feel human and welcoming. To enhance intimacy, colored circles behind the main subjects subtly bring them closer to the user, creating a sense of presence.

Personality in motion

We also included personal stories from employees, with large portraits that break out of their containers to emphasize individuality. Micro-animations with soft, bouncy effects add a final touch, making the platform feel dynamic, safe, and personal.

Empowering people to take the next step

Visitors can easily explore the application process, hear real stories, and feel empowered to take the next step. By combining storytelling with thoughtful design, the website lowers the threshold for joining and makes the organization feel human, accessible, and welcoming.
