For your consideration, a short story, about a new idea

David cares deeply about the environment, but can’t donate as much as he wants to nonprofits working to protect it.

As a designer, he sometimes donates design work to nonprofits, but his narrow skill set makes it hard to find a project he is a good fit for AND is creatively fulfilling.

Introducing

The Circle of Friends

How It Works

1

A for-profit business needs design work - something they would normally pay a contractor for.

2

Friends For Good matches them with a designer who does the project in exchange for a donation.

3

The business makes an agreed-upon donation to the designer’s nonprofit of choice.

Win. Win. Win. The business gets to work with the best deisgners. Designers get to do work they love and support nonprofits they care about. Nonprofits get financial support.
