A New Day Has Arrived To Promote Social Good Nationwide.
This year’s Creative Day for Social Good applications is now open! We will be back in person on October 19th and 20th in the Community Room at Google’s offices in Kitchener, Ontario. Capacity Canada, in partnership with Intertek Catalyst, Conestoga College, HIM&HER, Google and the creative community, will donate design and marketing work to non-profit organizations across Canada through Creative Day for Social Good (CD4SG). CD4SG will bring together teams of art directors, writers, account managers, and other creative professionals who will donate their time to guide talented design and public relations students from Conestoga College. Last year, the event received more than 100 applications, for 10 spots, from non-profits across Canada. The creative services total more than $100,000 of pro bono work to assist these worthy organizations in furthering their social impact. Examples of 2022 CD4SG student work can be found here.
Conestoga College Creative Day 2023
Dates:
- Thursday, October 19, 2023
- Friday, October 20, 2023
Before CD4SG the design students will work on a creative brief. This creative brief will help the students prepare new resources for the non-profits selected during our 24-hour blitz. They will then present them the following day.
Our focus this year will be on two key elements that our not-for-profit sector can benefit from after a challenging few years:
- Branding (visual identity, logo creation or revision, brand guidelines etc.)
- Development of a Public awareness/ Marketing Campaign/Fundraising campaign support (social media strategies and content, fundraising materials, video storyboards, appeal letters, a case for support, etc.)
