Heart of our community
I’ve been very fortunate to work with many non-profit organizations with impactful missions throughout my career. One agency client, HANDY, does incredible work directly in the community by providing underserved and underprivileged youth with leadership, education and a supportive community to help them succeed. Below are just a few of the many pieces I developed for the organization by providing creative direction, written copy, graphic design, brand management, and distribution.
A new chapter
The youth served by this organization face struggles that many of us could not even fathom. For these children and young adults, these challenges made even worse during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many were forced to deal with disruptions to schooling and employment, health issues and limited access to healthcare, and economic uncertainty and loss of housing. In addition to helping the youth weather the pandemic with programs, fundraising efforts and direct outreach, HANDY launched the Library of Us project, which started as a collaborative musical album, but has evolved into several projects where youth have told their unique stories in creative ways. I was honored to create the album cover for the project, as well as other materials for music videos, signage and a live concert performed live for the general public.
