## Crello for Nonprofits

Crello is now offering [free access to its Crello Pro version](https://crello.com/nonprofits/)
to eligible nonprofit organisations. Each organisation will receive access for up
to 10 staff or members.

To qualify, organisations must have a 501(c)(3) status or its ‘international equivalent’.
This will mean that registered charity status should ensure access to organisations
in the UK and Ireland.

Launched in 2017, Crello now has over 1.5 million registered users that have created
over 20,000,000 designs with Crello. The service provides thousands of ready-made
templates in 46 different formats for social media, blogs, ads, and print. The editor
offers static, video, and animated templates in 22 categories that cover all major
holidays & events worldwide.

 

## #FaceOfEarth Instagram filter donations

In addition to its Crello for Nonprofits programme, Crello has announced two efforts
to support environmental organisations. These are an Instagram face filter featuring
an eco-friendly concept named “faceofearth”, and a series of poster designs to promote
for maintaining an eco-friendly office.

Crello’s #FaceofEarth Instagram face filter

 

The “ faceofearth ” filter is a way for people to “express their concerns about 
environmental issues and encourage everyone else to do the same”.

The design company will donate money to [LessPlastic](https://www.lessplastic.org.uk/),
a non-profit (CIC) organisation tackling ocean plastic, every time the filter is
used in an Instagram Story. Although the amount per use of the face filter will 
vary, Crello hopes to donate **over $10,000** by the end of the campaign.

Nazar Begen, Head of Project at Crello, explained: “We chose LessPlastic to collaborate
with on the ‘faceofearth’ project as they are not only fighting a very significant
ecological disaster, but their values mirror our own of sustainable work practices.
Many charities struggle to raise funds through charitable giving alone, and we are
very proud to be able to support Less Plastic so they can continue to offer talks,
materials and consultancy services that inspires positive change in business and
communities around the world”.

In addition to supporting LessPlastic, Crello is also launching a series of posters
intended for offices to remind employers and employees about the importance of maintaining
a greener workspace and following more eco-friendly lifestyles.

Nazar added: ‘’Whether it’s on your social media, the office or anywhere else, conversations
about environmental issues are very important. As experts in marketing communications,
our team aims to help everyone to share their eco-attitude in whatever form they
see fit.’’

The posters are free and easy to customise, even for those without any prior design
experience. Everyone can choose a template with a message they want to communicate
edit the design to fit their preference, save their work, and print the poster or
share it on social networks.
