When Covid season hit, I started looking for ways to give back.
Culinary Care is a non-profit organization whose mission is to deliver healthy and delicious meals to those impacted by cancer. While the pandemic affected us all, cancer patients across the Chicagoland area were challenged even more.
As volunteers through EPIC (Engaging Philanthropy In Creatives), and having assisted with their branding in the past, we collaborated with Culinary Care to create social posts for Facebook and Instagram to build awareness and drive donations for #GivingTuesdayNow. Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving and unity.
Over $9,000 was raised and more than $19,000 was activated from a matching grant opportunity. This was a great win for Culinary Care, as they raised about $2,000 during the previous year. The long term goal was to also provide Culinary Care a cohesive strategy to engage, inspire and activate people to give beyond #GivingTuesdayNow.
