Project details
What we need
- Document outlining feedback on pitch delivery with suggested next steps and/or resources
- A script for a 1-minute verbal pitch that communicates your Organization's mission, work, and why people should care
Additional details
We are in a growth phase with our Marketing and Communications and I need to be Fundraising this quarter while we are still in flux. I would love some guidance on how to navigate this and talk about our work and who we serve. I am also aware that while we work in an international context, certain phrases may have and connotation undesirable or unintended consequences here in the US. ('Empower' and 'At-Risk' are used in South Africa widely, but are out of fashion here....)
What we have in place
- We currently have some older pitch deck materials, a pamphlet, one-pager, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have tons of photographs for visual collateral, a new website, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,550 , allowing us to continue offering our classes to the students free of charge; promoting equity, access to digital literacy, and teaching our students the life skills that can help them thrive!
Tying all of these pieces together into a coherent elevator pitch will help me convert my extensive network into supporters, into donors, and into long term advocates for our organization.

We believe all young people have extraordinary potential.
Testimonials
Huba was great to work with and had very insightful additions to contribute to our pitch and the value of our program!
Such a honor to be involved with this project that touches the lives of these talented kids, glad to help in any way I can. Working with Abby and Photo Start was also a joy.
