What is Brand Aid?
Brand Aid is Franklin Creative Club’s annual creative sprint for good.
In one focused evening, a small team of FCC strategists, designers, copywriters, web developers, photographers, and content creators come together to build a complete brand foundation and launch-ready website for a local nonprofit.
This isn’t a networking event.
It’s not a workshop.
It’s a working session where creative professionals collaborate to deliver the essential building blocks many nonprofits struggle to afford but desperately need to grow their mission.
By the end of the night, the nonprofit walks away with the foundations of a professional brand and digital presence — created entirely by the FCC community.
Our 2026 Nonprofit Partner
For our inaugural Brand Aid event, FCC is proud to support Veterans Health + Wellness Alliance, a Franklin-based nonprofit dedicated to raising funds to help Veterans recover holistically from trauma, addiction, and chronic health challenges through integrative and multidisciplinary care — provided at no cost to them.
Their mission is to help Veterans recover holistically from the effects of chronic health issues, stress, trauma, addiction, and nutritional deficiencies through integrative and multidisciplinary care — provided at no cost to them.
Through Brand Aid, FCC members will help equip this organization with a professional brand and digital presence so they can expand their reach and serve more Veterans in our community.
