How to Make Even More of a Difference When You Work Pro Bono
Posted in: Uncategorized
One of the most inspiring things you can do as a creative person is to craft a pro-bono campaign. It’s an opportunity to change the world for the better, discover new talents, build a new team to solve a new challenge and expand your comfort zone.
As money will be tight, chances are you will take on many different roles. On various jobs, I have found myself being the account planner, the creative director and the writer — as well as the lunch maker, the van driver, the camera rig builder, the talent recruiter, the motorboat driver and the guy who picks up the trash at the end of the day. You are going to get your hands dirty.
While you’re at it, you might take on one more job that can make an even bigger difference. Become a member of the board for the cause you are inspired to serve. You’ll have to attend one meeting a month and give more of your time, but speaking from experience, I know you will get more out of it than you put in.
