In June, San Francisco based designer Arvi Raquel-Santos spent 4 weeks in Hale County, Alabama with Project M, John Bielenberg’s famed summer programme set up to inspire designers to see that their work can have a positive and significant social impact.
Recognising the importance of ensuring talented designers have the opportunity to attend Project M (which costs $2000 each), Arvi has founded Design That Cares, “a socially based design collaborative”, which is selling posters pitching the Project M ethos “Think Wrong”.
For sale at only $35.00, the donations will go directly to help other designers attend the programme. Avri is also using a Facebook Cause Page to gain support.
