SPARK OF CONTENT WITH A SIDE OF {HOPE}

So how does it work? You simply choose a cause of your choice, we interview them to create a message that will have impact for their audience and then create a shirt design based on that message. Then we do what we do best...we go to the nonprofit and have an engaging event that will create content for you and for them! You do what you do best which is run your business and we will send you the photos when we’re done.

Most nonprofits struggle with marketing because they are so busy caring for the needs of people so giving them the gift of content creation is the best gift you can give and it will multiply their ability to raise funds and help more people.


‘CAUSE MY BUSINESS CARESWe all have the desire to help our community but there are times when we are so busy with just keeping our business moving that we don’t have time for a hands on engagement with the causes that matter most to us. That’s where Storytellers comes in. We can go to your cause of choice and facilitate an entire event which will produce {HOPE} and also create con-tent for you and the organization we are visiting.

So how does it work? This level is where YOU get to have the fun with us. After all, this is way too much goodness to keep to ourselves So we talk to you and learn more about your business and audience and culture. Next we talk to the nonprofit of your choice and gather information from them. We merge your hearts together on one shirt and have 2 events based on this information. The Storytellers Team facilitates the first event at your business then as your schedule allows, your team goes with us to the nonprofit and we all facilitate an event together. This is a HIGH level of engagement for all involved.

Real Impact happens when real connections are made. This is a 2 event campaign, one to spark passion in your business and one to create {HOPE} in your community.

Each year your donors expect to open the mail box and receive the same invitation from your organization. They prepare for the financial ask and show up at another event where they listen to speakers and watch videos and brace themselves for “the ask”. Each gala campaign is different but they all have two things in common, shirts and sharpies. We will determine the best way for you to create a high impact event that will create better awareness of the clients your cause serves.

Tired of the same old annual fund-raisers Try something new with our Gala campaign. The moment that your donors receive the invitation in the mail they will know that this year is going to be something different.

ONCE UPON A GALA CAMPAIGNImagine donors, sponsors and clients sitting together, all the same, sharing Chapters of their lives, connected through true engagement.


Promote a book

use the fear to help others

capture the legacy


1. Promotes higher employee and volunteer morale. People want to see that you think they matter and will feel like your organization cares about more than money. It shows you have an investment in your staff and on your team.

2. Become a socially responsible company, going above and beyond the limitations of a typical donation.

3. Every time somebody wears their Chapters shirt, inspired by your organization, they become walking billboards for your brand and because it is linked to a cause marketing campaign, they will see your heart, as well as your logo.

4. Word of mouth is the best and cheapest form of advertising. Wherever these shirts go, your message and brand goes. When backs of shirts are being read and the wearers are talking about their stories, your brand image is being seen and adver-tised on a personal level.

5. Increases the visibility of your brand in the community, locally and internationally.

6. Become a more attractive organization; people want to work for and volunteer with a company that cares about their community, motivating them to be more productive and committed to your bottom line.

7. Create an interactive and more meaningful way to impact and benefit those you serve in your organization. Give them a chance to see your heart and why you sup-port and open lines of communication that can’t be bought.

8. Spread the message of {HOPE} to those served by your organization; let them be motivated and inspired by your volunteer’s stories.

9. Create a fund-raising channel that reaches beyond ages, races, economic classes, and religions.

10. By being a part of our Storytellers Family, you are also contributing to the {HOPE} station.

What is cause marketing? Cause marketing is the process of a business and a nonprofit working together for a mutual cause and using that engagement to benefit the community. We know that your business has a heart for the community but does your audience know that? We believe that as a business, we must set a standard of helping others while growing our businesses. We do this by connecting your company with a cause that your team can connect to and helping you create content to show your clients that you care.

How do I know if Storytellers is right for my organization?Every business and nonprofit can benefit from a Storytellers Campaign. Creating content usually takes time and money but our process is a simple yet powerfultool for every business type and every cause. How do I know if Storytellers is right for my community?In these busy days, people need to know that they matter. They need a voice, to know that their thoughts and feelings, prayers and pain, hopes and dreams can be heard. Storytellers allows people to feel connected again and inspire them to work harder at making this a better world.

What is the purpose behind Storytellers?The purpose is simple, give people from all walks of life an opportunity to share the Chapters of their lives in an interactive format and use those Chapters to inspire others that are walking behind them in line or in life.

Instead of money, can I buy and donate a Chapters shirt? Absolutely! Your purchased shirts will be used at an upcoming {HOPE} Station event or random act of kindness and will be given away to a person in need of some {HOPE}.

Step 1: Create a campaign shirt that people want to wear AFTER the event is over!

Step 2: tell them it is OK to reveal the truth and share hope with others. our founder Stephanie knows how to motivate and bring the best chapters out of people

Step 3: listen so they know that they MATTER

Step 4: create long lasting impact. each time a shirt

is worn the person standing behind them in line or in life can know they are not alone.

Step 5: Watch the impact unfold as we reveal the Chapters of our lives together
