Event Slideshow Creation
Project details
What we need
- Creation or update of a slideshow no longer than 3 minutes including photos, title and end pages, and music accompaniment
- Curated collection of photos for press and media coverage
Additional details
We need help creating a short video or slideshow that shows who we are and what we do ... kind of like a commercial. It would be used to introduce our coalition at community events, presentations to agencies, businesses, service clubs, faith-based meetings. And if possible online when folks visit our website.
What we have in place
- We currently have photographs of our coalition in action, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have data in digital format showing our efforts, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,129 , allowing us to provide more healthy activities and trainings for our youth to learn about making healthy choices.
Sharing our coalition mission and efforts will help us market our activities to our community and encourage donors and volunteers to help us sustain our coalition's important work in our community with youth and families.
