About this Opportunity

Impact Investing Course Graphic Designer

CrowdDoing.world is building an impact investing course for social entrepreneurs. We have content experts involved and have already recorded hours of it. We need graphic designers to help us storytellers this information in a way that makes it accessible.

    he only way CrowdDoing.world can realize its impact potential is through virtual volunteers,service learners(http://blog.reframeit.com/service-learning-and-skilled-volunteering/), and micro-leaders (https://real-leaders.com/leveraging-micro-leadership-to-make-aspirational-goals-achievable/) coming together.

    See this brief video aboutMicro-leadership at CrowdDoing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhdB2YJ8Ocs&app=desktop). Micro-leadership means that each person adopts a dimension of responsibility for a collective problem in our society through collaborating on that area creatively individually and together through social innovation.
