New InvisiYouth 2.0, New Website, New Home!
InvisiYouth’s website got a redesign and a major upgrade! That’s right…welcome to our new digital home. And if you are reading this article, that means you have found our new website, so welcome to our new digital home!
All 2022, you’ve seen InvisiYouth redesign programs, add new resources to our roster, and now it’s time for our nonprofit to have a new home to put all our resources and activism in one place that’s easy to use, fun to go to, and just plain attractive.
A massive thank you to our website team at IQNection for taking our dreams of the new visual direction of InvisiYouth and turning it into life! They have been a massive supporter of InvisiYouth Charity for over six years, and we’re proud they were the support to help take our vision for InvisiYouth 2.0 and turn it into this incredible website. They are the best!
Our mission and heart are still the same, we just got a way more sleek and vibrant way of bringing our resources and activism to all the deserving young people living with chronic illness and disability in the world.
Jumping right back into the swing of virtual programming with an all new season of our popular series, #InvisiYouthChatSessions: A Video Podcast Chat Show!
Settling in for Season 5, there are going to be some major upgrades to our virtual program, but we’ll be keeping lots of the same so that classic feel will still remain. It’s our fusion of entertainment and education with this monthly video podcast series!
Why Subscribe to Season 5:
And for Audio Flash Files, the other show on our podcast, we’re giving you a theme this year! Each AFF is packed with personal growth you can take into so many different relationships and dynamics in your life as you live with chronic illness/disability!
InvisiYouth is acting like the communication mediator in this set of Audio Flash Files! Let’s be real: when you’re a young person living with a chronic illness or disability, it can be challenging to communicate with people in our lives and feel that we’re being heard and understood. So each Audio Flash File will focus on a new dynamic, and break it down for you how our mediator skills can be interpreted to fit your life and needs so you can thrive
InvisiYouth’s charitable sponsor, I’m 4 Love, has graciously agreed to match donations to our nonprofit, starting on Giving Tuesday and ending on New Years Eve! That’s right, any donation to our organization will be doubled, so anyone can make twice the difference this holiday season!
I’m 4 Love–a new vegan, cruelty-free beauty brand with a message of discovering inner joy and beauty through their mission–has been supporting InvisiYouth Charity for over three years, and will be leading our match donation campaign by matching the first $400 of donations!
There’s two things that are noteworthy: the first is learning the TWO WAYS you can donate and give back. And the second is remembering WHY your donations hold so much direct impact and value!
Firstly, you can support InvisiYouth by donating directly on our website (just click DONATE or visit www.invisiyouthcharity.com/donate to do that) OR by purchasing one of our InvisiYouth Subtle Activist Color-Block Bracelets at InvisiYouth Charity Shop, exclusively on Etsy!
That’s right, our homemade and chic bracelets are back on sale for ONLY $4 (with FREE GLOBAL SHIPPING) and when you buy one (or a few!), that means 100% of your purchase will be donated to funding our nonprofit’s free programming! So visit our Etsy Shop to place your order: www.etsy.com/shop/invisiyouthcharity
Now…WHY should you donate to InvisiYouth Charity and encourage others in your life to do the same? InvisiYouth provides our monthly resources and programming all year long for FREE for deserving teens and young adults living with chronic illnesses and disabilities. With our mission of empowering them in all the non-medical aspects of their lives so they can adapt to thrive with any health struggles! But we need your help to continue doing this!
And when you donate to InvisiYouth, 100% goes directly toward these programs and resources remaining free so your money directly impacts this deserving community! And with I’m 4 Love matching the first $400 donations, you are making TWICE the impact too!
We need your help, the help of your support network and the help of your followers to keep InvisiYouth Charity and its resources going!
Please DONATE or SHOP on our Etsy store by News Years Eve! And definitely tell a friend you think could help spread the word!
Introducing the InvisiYouth Freestyle Volunteers Program! Volunteering for a good cause has never been so easy!
With a quick sign up, you’re notified of volunteer projects (anything from social media shares, fundraising, activism campaigns, program and outreach support, etc) and you select based on your interests, free time and how you feel. It’s all about giving back in quick ways.
Our volunteer program is getting a MAJOR UPGRADE as we make it flexible to participate as much or little as possible, and flexible to adapt to your health needs and life structure any any point!
Plus, we have TWO divisions of volunteer groups!
The “MEDICALLY ADULT-ISH”™ DIVISION so all of our community, and even their support network, family/friends, our allies and the general public looking to volunteer can get involved.
The “HEALTHCARE STUDENTS AND PROFESSIONALS” DIVISION is for all those working or studying to work in all the fields of medicine like being a nurse, doctor, PT/OT, psychology, and more can now take part in giving back to a community that’ll be part of their patient group. So when you work in healthcare, donate your time to learn how to be more empowered in supporting future young adult patients, and boosting your resume and skills by giving back to them!
ANNOUNCEMENT: Sign Up starts NOW, so get ready to become one of our flexible volunteers in either of the two divisions! All you have to do is fill out our quick sign up form, and when our first email listing for volunteers is ready to be sent out, you’ll get that email!
EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT for the future of InvisiYouth Charity! Our nonprofit organization is excited to announce its partnership with another international organization, Rare Patient Voice as one of their new Referral Partners! And it’s a partnership YOU can be part of that’ll support InvisiYouth by giving back to our organization!
RPV gives patients and caregivers a platform to voice their opinions through surveys and interviews! They’re global and work with young people so all the people part of InvisiYouth in the eight countries we work in can be part of supporting InvisiYouth as a referral partner.
And all it takes is one thing!
When any individual signs up with RPV for free with OUR PRE-MADE LINK to take part in future surveys from Rare Patient Voice, InvisiYouth will receive a $10 donation per person that signs up.
You can choose to be part of any surveys in the future, but that sign up with RPV for free makes a donation to InvisiYouth!
We are super excited to collaborate and work with Rare Patient Voice and excited to be a referral partner!
Also, another fun collaboration with our new partners at RPV! Founder Dominique has been featured in one of their Instagram Spotlight Feature stories, so go check it out on Instagram.
