Project details

What we need
  • Ongoing copywriting support for 15-20 hours over the course of 4 weeks
  • Support may include: email campaigns, website content, brochures, one-pager/fact sheets, or fundraising/promotional materials

  • Note: We devised this project to connect nonprofits and volunteers for more flexible, more immediate impact. We strongly suggest you start with 4 weeks and decide from there if you'd like to continue working.

Additional details

We need a one-paragraph episode description for TWO episodes of our podcast, Stitch Please. We also ask volunteers to identify 2 quotes in the episode that stood out to them as representative of its content. The episodes are about 1 hour long or less. The podcast is a weekly audio show that centers Black women, girls, and femmes in sewing. The episodes range from solo episodes to interviews to group conversations.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a Google drive with an audio file of the episode (.mp3) and sample episode summaries. We are also responsive to questions.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,187 , allowing us to This will help us conserve scarce resources while also producing high quality episode summaries with peppy writing and, ideally, with relevant keywords.

Episode Descriptions are very important to a podcast. They help people decide whether they wish to listen or not. Our current notes are rudimentary. A copywriter with verve and creativity can show us new options for more lively writing.
