• An eye for storytelling — helping us make the process simple, emotional, and inspiring.

• Able to work with our team on a short brief (60–90 seconds).

�� What you’ll get

• A featured volunteer credit on our website and socials.

• The chance to use your creative skills for real-world social impact.

• A friendly, passionate team making giving more human again.
