Social Media Content Creation

  • Letters Against Depression is many things. We are letters and cards and hugs. We are motivational pictures, quotes, and pics. We are a team, but also strong individuals making a mark.

    We are a force! And we need to show this on Social Media.

  • We are changing our entire social media strategy to focus solely on LAD’s mission - sending letters of hope and support to those in need. We want to build a community-based approach which shows all the fun, creative, and impactful activities our Volunteers take on. This is your time to shine!

  • If you are social media inclined - that includes making posts for Facebook/Instagram, TikTok, or even longer videos for YouTube - this could be the place for you!

  • You can read the rules and regulations for creating content by downloading our “How To Social Media” downloadable pdf on the Community Resource page.

  • You can earn up to an additional hour per post on social media to reward you for your time.

If you are feeling especially dedicated, we are always interested in collaborating on a fundraiser. This can come in many forms.

  • You can host a stamp drive

  • You can host a bake sale

  • You can sell arts and crafts

  • You can host an event such as a music show, theater piece, or other event where ticket sales can be donated to LAD

  • You can run a fundraiser like See’s Candies or Little Caesars where funds are donated directly towards LAD.

  • Really, anything you want! Let us know so we can support you.

  • You can earn up to the amount of time it takes you to complete a fundraiser.

“I’ve received a bunch of letter from a bunch of beautiful people since I signed up for LAD at the end of 2021 and the joy they have brought me can’t even be put into words. What you are doing is so special, thank you so much.”
