Engineering Studio Engineering Studio A hybrid NGO platform — awareness, engagement & fundraising
Callisto — Environmental Organization for Wildlife and Nature was founded in 2004 in Thessaloniki by scientists specialising in environmental issues, and has since grown into a community of citizens, volunteers, and local partners protecting Greece’s wildlife and ecosystems. To support its mission, Callisto needed a modern digital platform that could both inform and activate the public — showcasing dozens of projects and EU-funded programmes, publishing news, and enabling donations and product sales. With design by Blind Studio and development by Kukarika, the new custom WordPress + WooCommerce ecosystem was built with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) and flexible components, functioning as a dynamic hub for awareness, participation, and fundraising.
A scientifically credible NGO that had to speak to the public, run on its own team, and fund itself — all from one content-heavy platform.
Needed to present dozens of projects, campaigns, and EU-funded programmes (LIFE, INTERREG) in a structured, navigable way.
Encourage volunteering, donations, and supporter participation — turning visitors into active contributors.
Online donations and product sales to support the organisation financially.
Communicate scientific expertise while staying accessible to everyday citizens.
Ready to expand with more projects, publications, and online initiatives.
A modular WordPress + ACF system with WooCommerce at its core — paired with Blind Studio's clean, environmental design.
A platform that surfaces Callisto's full body of work and lets the public learn, engage, and give — managed entirely by the team.
The callisto.gr website is a hybrid NGO platform — combining environmental awareness, citizen engagement, and e-commerce in one place. With Blind Studio's design and Kukarika's development, Callisto now has a future-ready platform that supports both its mission-driven communication and its funding needs.
