Where do I sign? 5 Carrds for Taking Action
2 min readJun 17, 2020
During a seemingly endless wave of crises, carrd.co has become a go-to tool for making up-to-date, accessible and “bite-sized” websites sharing links to petitions, fundraisers and educational resources. Here is a roundup of five Carrds that offer action plans to help communities and families in crisis:
- BlackLivesMatters.carrd.co — Beautifully organized and straight to the point, this Carrd was created by a 17 year old student and includes translated versions for accessibility.
- YemenCrisis.carrd.co — Information-packed and full of options for those concerned about the current state of affairs in Yemen, this Carrd lists articles, petitions and donation links along with a template to email the United Nations.
- PendingPetition.carrd.co — This is a routinely updated list of petitions that are still short of their signature goal. Each petition focuses specifically on individuals who have been murdered or terrorized for being Black.
- Signatures.carrd.co — Another list of petitions in need of signatures, but this one is primarily focused on those that are close to their goal. It also includes a number of direct donation links to individuals in need.
- PleaseHelpSignThese.carrd.co — For globally minded petition signers, this Carrd directs traffic to causes including Black Lives Matter, Polish LGBT+ oppression, the Syrian refugee crisis and more.
