Give back

Volunteer with Designed

Designed is run by volunteers — designers, researchers, engineers and community builders who give their time to keep design education free. Whether you can give one hour a week or ten, tell us how you’d like to help and we’ll be in touch.

How would you like to help?

Choose as many as you like.

Design pages and features for designed.org, the free platform designers use to learn, find mentors and find work.

Shape how Designed looks and sounds — the brand, campaigns, social graphics and event materials.

Research, design and test new features across the website and the iPhone, iPad and Mac apps.

Give creative direction to campaigns, content and the brand, so everything we publish feels like one Designed.

Talk to designers and mentors, run studies, and turn what you learn into what we build next.

Grow the community — plan campaigns, run our social channels and spread the word about free design education.

Welcome new members, look after Discord and events, and help mentors and mentees get the most out of Designed.

Build and maintain designed.org and its API — the React web app and the Cloudflare Workers and Postgres behind it.

How many hours a week could you give?

A rough guess is fine — it helps us suggest the right project.

What you do, what you've worked on, and anything you'd love to get better at.
