Check out The Joy Team’s Billboard Campaign (Vancouver, Washington)

(I'm not a fan of Clear Channel, but I am a fan of this project)









ABOUT THE JOY TEAM: The Joy Team is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in Vancouver, Washington. Founded in February 2010, The Joy Team actually began spreading joy in November 2009 when founder Michele McKeag Larsen and her daughter, Taryn Dehn Larsen hit the streets of Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Washington, setting out notes of encouragement and inspiration. A month later, inspiration struck again in the form of a bus shelter promoting peace. Once that seed of an idea set in, thoughts stretched like roots and on February 19, 2010, when the Articles of Incorporation were filed a bright, fresh sprout shot up.

With a handful of inspired directors and a whole lot of excitement, where we go from here is largely up to the community as a whole. Just like rearing a child, raising joy takes a village.

Our mission is to build community by spreading joy, optimism and inspiration.

We carry out this mission through various projects, all of which begin by helping people shift into a positive frame of mind through the incredible power of positive words.
