I began working with Baltimore-based Jesuit Volunteer Corps this past summer. JVC is an organization that engages brave young believers in life-changing service across 37 U.S. cities and seven countries. These young believers — called "JVs" (Jesuit Volunteers) — work for justice with and for individuals who are disenfranchised, marginalized or vulnerable, such as children with limited educational opportunities, people who are homeless, patients diagnosed with AIDS, survivors of domestic abuse, low-wage earners, former gang members, refugees and the elderly.

For JVC's spring appeal, we created a flat card showcasing gritty, journalistic-style images and a quotation from Pope Francis promoting mercy. A semi-transparent supplement communicating the appeal was positioned atop the card and, along with a remittance envelope for gift collection, these three coordinating pieces were enclosed in an A7 mailing envelope.

See the passionate young women and men who are committed to social justice.
