The Mathers Foundation

A Refreshed Website and Brand for an Established Foundation

Launch Website

We partnered with The Mathers Foundation, an organization committed to advancing science and health through impactful scientific research funding—to refresh their logo and redesign their website. The result is a modern, user-friendly platform that clarifies the grant application process and showcases grantee achievements.

Crafting a more intuitive, mission-driven platform

The Mathers Foundation, a prominent grantmaking organization supporting groundbreaking research in immunology, genomics, and neuroscience, has awarded over $441 million in funding to date. Despite its significant impact, the Foundation’s previous website was dense with text and challenging to navigate, causing confusion for applicants and prompting frequent support requests. To address these issues, Glantz was brought in to modernize the brand, restructure the site’s content, and design a digital experience that simplifies the grant process for both applicants and administrators.

Building a clearer path for scientific advancement

The Mathers Foundation wanted to establish themselves as a beacon for transformative life sciences research-and needed their digital presence to match their mission. With unqualified applications overwhelming their team and repetitive questions consuming valuable time, their website was creating barriers rather than connections. The site lacked clear pathways for different audiences and failed to reflect the foundation’s prestigious standing in the scientific community.

A strategic refresh built for clarity and credibility

We gave the website a complete redesign, revamping both its visual identity and user experience to reflect the Foundation’s prestige and purpose. The new site features a modernized layout, clearer navigation, and simplified language to reduce confusion and streamline the grant process. Alongside a refreshed logo and brand system, the digital experience now feels both modern, informative and credible. Close collaboration with the Mathers team ensured the final product met internal goals while addressing the needs of applicants and administrators alike.

"The Glantz team has been great to work with—professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and accommodating."
