As a non-profit organization, nestwärme relies entirely on private donations to make its work possible. To help communicate the breadth of its services in a clear and engaging way, I was commissioned to create a series of short animated videos for a donation campaign, primarily for Instagram.
Based on pre-written scripts, I developed three main videos highlighting key areas of nestwärme’s work: “Lotsen- und Beratungsfunktion,” which focuses on guiding families through complex systems, paperwork, and difficult life situations; “Freudenmomente,” a project that creates special outings and shared experiences for families, offering moments of lightness away from the pressures of everyday life; and “Geschwisterzeit,” which supports siblings of children with disabilities or life-limiting illnesses - children whose own needs can easily be overlooked in the shadow of ongoing care.
In addition, I created three short animated clips for the children’s and youth hospice that nestwärme is currently building in Trier, Germany. These videos were designed to show how donations help transform an empty building into a place of care, warmth, and support. Using interior illustrations as a base, I developed playful build-up animations that gradually brought the spaces to life.
