Project details

What we need
  • A compelling narrative, or set of stories
  • Persuasive copy that can be used in appeals to donors, annual reports, grant applications, and media relations
  • Popular examples: Organization's founding story, a program achievement or milestone, a look back at the past few years, organizational backgrounder, etc.
  • Note: This project is not intended to support your general content planning or marketing but there are several projects in our Marketing & Communications category which are a good fit!
Additional details

We need your help to design our next annual fund campaign which includes a series of 4-8 stories. We are looking for someone with experience putting together a marketing/communications product, preferably with nonprofits.

What we have in place
  • We currently have former campaigns and stories, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have photos, grant proposals and annual reports, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to a lot! These campaigns can take many hours which our small team could instead use to focus on our core programs

This campaign is one of our biggest fundraisers each year

Our mission

Children for Change empowers youth to become global change-makers with the knowledge, confidence, and empathy to make a positive impact in their world.

What we do

C4C offers student-driven curriculum on a variety of topics like climate change, housing inequity, and food justice. Students are engaged in curated volunteer opportunities with local nonprofits where they can apply their classroom knowledge in the real world. C4C students also advocate through letter writing, philanthropy simulations, and by speaking to local elected officials about issues that matter to them. C4C students tap their innate compassion and empathy in order to contribute to a more healthy community for all.
