Best Education Annual Reports – Yearly

It’s clickable. One of the best parts about this annual report is its interactivity. Not only does Padua Academy include clickable videos—embedded right into different sections of the report—but, it also includes links and buttons to more information. With the click of a button, users can take a peek at their monthly newsletter and even subscribe.

It’s actionable. A lot of nonprofits often struggle with making their annual reports actionable. Sure, a well-designed, informative annual report can be wonderful all in its own right. But the icing on the cake? It inspires readers to do something—donate, volunteer, or even advocate. With donate buttons throughout their annual report, Padua Academy nails this. Readers don’t have to wonder how they can help make an impact.

It’s clear. Readers of this annual report can immediately garner the highlights of the year. With bold, easy-to-understand metrics, supporters don’t have to read the entirety of the report (that’s a good thing!). And, with the use of their brand colors and fonts, Padua Academy immediately reminds readers of who they are.

Why we love this education annual report: 

It’s creative. While Ubongo could have presented their information in paragraph form, they decided not to. The result? Eye-catching, creative masterpieces. Throughout their report, Ubongo showcases pertinent information using graphs, fun photos, and—get this—a comprehensive timeline. Using their whimsical style, this nonprofit has mastered the art of storytelling.

It’s plain cool. One of the most unique parts of Ubongo’s annual report is its use of audio clips. To showcase their impact, this nonprofit embedded Soundcloud links into their report. I mean, talk about amazing. Not only can supporters read testimonials, but they can also hear them. Incredible.
