StickyNote Creative

When was the last time you sent out a handwritten note?

In this digital era we’re living in, there’s no denying that there’s something extra special about receiving a handwritten letter or card. More often than not, our mailboxes are filled with junk mail and bills, which can make that handwritten note really stand out and grab your supporter’s attention! Having pre-printed note cards readily available empowers anyone from your organization to write a thoughtful greeting or thank you to your donors and supporters.

StickyNote Creative had the honor of partnering with Boston nonprofit, African Bridge Network (ABN), to create a custom notecard. ABN is a supportive community which values and strengthens the qualifications and experiences of Africans and other skilled immigrants and exists to help them reach their full career potential here in the United States.

This beautiful note card design features the Adinkra symbol, Wawa Aba–“seed of the wawa tree”–which symbolizes hardiness, toughness and perseverance and embodies the resilience and determination of the immigrants ABN serves as they work to build their lives in a new country.

Historical sidebar: Adinkra symbols were originally designed by "Asante" Craftsmen of Ghana, West Africa and embody non-verbal communicative and aesthetic values of the Asante and was the ideal inspiration for a custom designed notecard for ABN.
