Spread the Word About Your Project
You decided on what your GivingTuesdayKids: KindCraft UNselfie Project is going to accomplish and when it is going to happen.
Next, let's explore ways you can get the word out about your amazing project. Time to put on your creative hat!
What should be on a poster, flyer and/or social media post?
The basics of who, what, when, where, why and how.
WHO: Who is hosting or running the event? (YOU!)
WHAT: What is the event?
WHEN: When does the event take place and for how long?
WHERE: Where is the event held?
WHY: Why is this event taking place? Who is it benefiting?
HOW: How can the reader take action to get involved or help?
Design Tips
-
Use fonts and lettering that are easy to read on posters, flyers and social media posts.
-
Use no more than three fonts. (Bold and Italic do not count as different font and help make headlines and subheads stand out to readers.)
-
Use no more than three font sizes.
-
Use color, if your budget allows.
-
Color copies are more expensive than black and white.
-
Posters always look best with bright colors.
-
Note: yellow fonts and lettering on white backgrounds are very hard to read. Adding a shadow or an outline will help make yellow text pop.

-
-
-
Add at least one image or graphic to posters and flyers.
-
Be sure to use images that are free for public use. A few good resources: clker.com, pdclipart.org, and classroomclipart.com.
-
-
Social posts should always include an image and text to grab people’s attention AND to rank higher in news feeds (be seen by the most people).
-
Remember to tag images and posts with #kindcraft, #kindcraftkc, #thefutureiskindness and #givingtuesday.
