The Happy Post Project - Colombian Stories

Overview of Idea

Happy Post is a global movement which believes that happiness is a universal value that inspires social change. We’ve been invited by the Colombian government to visit three villages affected by the ongoing armed conflict. There, we’ll spread happiness and share their do-good stories with the world.

The Specifics: What will the $3,000 fund?

The Colombian government has invited Happy Post to visit three villages affected by decades of armed conflict. With this grant, we can meet people directly impacted by the conflict, spread happiness in their communities, showcase their stories, and ultimately inspire lasting change.

We have three goals. First, we’ll collect and deliver messages of support from the global Happy Post community to soldiers and civilians in conflict areas. Second, we’ll ask them to share their stories and perspectives of happiness. Finally, we’ll create a short documentary to share this experience.

This project can be funded with this $3,000 grant, which will be used for flights, video equipment, production costs, and happiness workshops in each village.
