What are the responsibilities and job description for the Volunteer: Graphic Designer to create a static and animated 'invitation' to Climate House membership position at Climate House US?
This is a volunteer opportunity provided by Taproot Foundation, a nonprofit creating social change through pro bono connections.
We are preparing for the launch of Climate House, a creative think tank staging solutions - and bringing them to life, and we need help creating the best visuals for use in our newsletter (Substack) and social media (Instagram). This project involves creating files that feel like an invitation to join our organization as members to help "Build the House" - which is our founding membership campaign. We need both a static file and animated file toward this end. It might be helpful to note that our Substack theme is called, Climate House Letters, so there are references to work with when creating a new design for use on our Substack and Instagram.
Our success relies on participation from the general public and donors to help build the House with us. These visuals will be essential to attracting our initial membership base as we "build the house."
I'm here for an initial call and throughout the way to discuss the vision and progress. We have a campaign and comms materials to use to integrate into the invitation, as well.
Climate House US ("Climate House") Mission: Climate House is a creative think tank using the arts to illustrate actionable pathways forward—and bring them to life. Our Mythos Embodied Climate: Climate change is not the abstract, technical issue it’s often framed to be–but a universal, ambient one experienced through our bodies and daily lives. CH communicates using universal sensory language, to reintegrate our understanding of climate change as real in the felt sense, and as a core defining issue shaping everything around us. Universal Sensory Language: By speaking this universal language of the senses, we can communicate in a language everyone speaks and understands. This helps reframe climate as an everyone issue–providing an opportunity for the general public to reclaim their agency in understanding it and engaging with its solutions creatively, collaboratively, and meaningfully. Culture-First: Culture is the fabric of daily life. CH uses a broad suite of cultural tools to meet people where they are, designing programming that is audience-tailored and culture-first, recognizing this as the carrier oil for engaging with more complex topics. Show-not-tell: Because seeing is believing, we design programs that show, not tell. All of our programs are seared with a blueprint, grounding solutions on the experiential plane, allowing our audience to feel solutions that are so actionable, they can taste them.
