For millennia, storytelling has been the thread binding disparate cultures, locales, and individuals together. At its root, storytelling stands to be a great equalizer: stories not only entertain and educate, but they also increase understanding and build empathy — all of which are instrumental when looking to raise awareness about YOUR nonprofit (from its mission, programs, and individuals served to volunteers, community impact, and bottom line).
In this workshop, we will dive into the basics of impactful storytelling, at first painting broad strokes about the various ways in which storytelling can engage audiences and further impact before honing in on the reciprocal relationship between micro and macro elements of storytelling.
