YMCA of Greenville (SC) Signs Up with SOCIY

We are excited to announce the addition of our newest YMCA to the SOCIY platform ... the YMCA of Greenville, South Carolina!

The Plan
The YMCA of Greenville is going to be a major voice in the development and growth of SOCIY. We are excited to partner with their team members there, utilizing their innovation and ideas to develop the best solutions for YMCA online needs. News, Events, Branch Pages, Location Search, Program pages, Brand-standardized & responsive design, mobile app - all these features will be included as Greenville joins on the highest tier offered through the SOCIY platform. We plan to have a new site, with all the SOCIY features, launching by the turn of the new year.

The Highlights
Greenville Y uses CCC (Christensen Computer Company) as a back-end solution. One of the primary goals of this project is to integrate CCC into their website in a deeper, more efficient way. Pulling from our past experience in integrating Y websites with CCC's backend, we'll be working with the Greenville team to provide the best functionality in program memberships, donations, and account management that CCC provides through their API. Take all of that, wrap it in a smooth and seamless User experience, and you've got a new standard in website-backend integrations for YMCAs. We're a little excited about it! This isn't just about making it work with the API ... this is about integrations that perform.

The Goal
We feel very good about this partnership with the team at the Greenville Y, and we're thankful for their spirit and willingness to dive into SOCIY with us. We look forward to working with their team strategizing on content, marketing strategy, deeper analytics and gathering measurables to ensure that SOCIY is doing it's job of making their association the best it can be online.

Be sure to follow them on Twitter and Facebook to stay up to date with the exciting new launch of their SOCIY website, as we move "Forward Together" with the YMCA of Greenville SC.

 


 

About SOCIY

SOCIY is a website platform specifically tailored for YMCAs to help navigate the ever changing digital landscape. The name ‘SOCIY’ (pronounced So-she) comes from the latin word, “Socii” which is the plural of “socius’, meaning allies or partners. That's what SOCIY strives to be ... an ally and partner with the YMCA in the online world. Developed by a company called Code Koalas, they have worked with YMCAs across the nation for the past 6 years. Through that experience, they have developed a very special understanding and appreciation for both what Ys need & the services they provide. SOCIY sets out to provide website solution for Ys. Plain and simple. If your association is needing a better online solution, connect with them through their website.
