A ONE-DAY DESIGN SPRINT FOR GOOD

According to HOW Magazine, there are 1,600 designers working in Milwaukee, and Spectrum Nonprofit Services affirms that Milwaukee has nearly the same number of nonprofits. Bringing the two groups together is an opportunity to create change that serves the greater good of our community. In the Fall of 2018, Milwaukee’s creative professionals will have 12 hours to use their talent in a meaningful way. 

We aim to create a stronger creative community by connecting local creatives with nonprofits to collaborate for something that gives back and promotes social change.

Everyone involved with DesignMil shares common goals for the event: providing an opportunity for creatives to give back and gain valuable experience and for local, deserving organizations to gain a service they may not be able to afford otherwise; it’s a positive way to connect the community.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
