Find out about our current design for good project including how to participate on our events page at Design Lives Here.
Design for Good is a platform for applying design thinking to social change. It creates opportunities for designers to build their practices, raise their visibility in the community and make a positive impact. We will connect and empower designers through tools, case studies, events, training and resources.
The video below, produced by dress code, will allow you to hear from members of the design community about the importance of design thinking to solve many of the problems facing our society today. Learn how you can make a difference in your local community, your company and the world.

Organizations – A brief list of organizations with existing programs. Look for some new programs from the AIGA Charlotte Chapter soon.
The Design for Good poster show challenged designers to create a poster that would inform Charlotte area citizens about environmental and social issues, and inspire the community to create positive change in our growing city. This initiative channels local designers, and their creative talent, toward community needs and demonstrates how design and design thinking can make a difference.
It also provided an opportunity for designers to meet local nonprofits behind environmental and social issues, develop partnerships and work together to help raise awareness for their cause.
