Charity & Nonprofit Video Production

At Wyzowl, we’ve spent over a decade helping charities, foundations, and nonprofit organisations tell the stories that matter, raise awareness for their causes, and inspire the kind of action that drives real impact.

World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA)
Working with a network of over 200,000 global vets to provide education, training and resources, WSAVA needed an explainer video to help them reach more of their audience and show what they can offer. Wyzowl created a short animated video that is engaging and informative, which they have been able to use on their website and social channels to grow their community.
It was a great experience to have our Explainer Video created by Wyzowl.
Not only was the product high quality at an extremely reasonable price but the team are extremely helpful and friendly.
Fantastic company, I would recommend to absolutely everyone.

Our process
Every charity and nonprofit video project follows a clear, structured process with built-in review and approval stages at every step. This means your communications team, trustees, or stakeholders can sign off at each milestone – giving you full confidence in the message before we move forward.
Stage 01
Script
We start by getting under the skin of your cause. Our writers craft a custom script built around your brief, your audience, and the specific action you want people to take. We build in a dedicated review stage so your team can approve the message, tone, and language before anything else begins.
Stage 02
Design
We create custom illustrations and a detailed storyboard from scratch – no templates, no stock assets. Every visual is designed to reflect your brand and support your story, giving your team a clear picture of the finished video before animation begins.
Stage 03
Sound
A great voiceover can make or break a charity video. We have a roster of professional voiceover artists – across accents, languages, and styles – to find the right voice for your cause and your audience. Multilingual projects are no problem; we source native-speaking talent wherever it’s needed.
Stage 04
Animation
We bring everything together into a polished, finished video with crafted animation, music, and sound design. You review the final video and we’ll make unlimited revisions until you’re completely satisfied – then deliver final files in every format you need, from website ready versions to social cuts.

With 4,000+ videos created for more than 2,000 organisations worldwide, we bring proven experience to projects where every word – and every pound of budget – needs to count.
Storytelling that moves people
The best charity videos don’t just inform – they make people feel something. We’ve spent over a decade perfecting the craft of emotional storytelling through animation, and we know how to translate a cause into a video that genuinely connects with its audience.
Supporting nonprofit teams worldwide
We work with organisations across more than 40 countries. Using our own project management platform, we make collaboration, feedback, and approvals simple – so even distributed or volunteer-led teams can move projects forward efficiently.
Budget-conscious, fixed pricing
In the nonprofit sector, every resource counts. That’s why we work to fixed, all-inclusive pricing – quoted upfront, with no hidden fees, no scope creep, and no surprises. You know exactly what you’re getting and exactly what it costs, from day one.
Proven experience with complex stories
Whether you’re explaining a nuanced policy issue, communicating a sensitive cause, or making statistics feel human, we know how to turn complexity into clarity. Over 4,000 videos have taught us how to simplify without losing impact.
Data-driven video strategy
We publish the annual State of Video Marketing report – giving us unique insight into how audiences engage with video content. Charity and nonprofit clients benefit from strategies informed by real data, not guesswork.
End-to-end service
We handle everything from scripting and design to animation and delivery. One team, one process, one price – so your comms team can focus on the cause, not the production.
Shmoody
Wyzowl created an explainer video for Shmoody’s brand new website launch to introduce the app and show the many benefits it offered.
The brief was clear, create an engaging video that shows off the mental health support app both on the website and on social media, with the dual audience of new users and potential investors.
Two versions were delivered, a full length video and a short version for social platforms and paid marketing.
The project management was excellent from start to finish. Every deliverable came through on time (often ahead of schedule), and feedback was handled with care and precision.
They made the whole process feel easy – clear communication, organized revisions, and zero friction. I really appreciated how they balanced keeping the project on track while still being flexible and receptive to creative feedback.
What stood out most to me was how well they balanced creativity with professionalism. They had a real talent for translating complex ideas into clear, visually engaging storytelling. Every detail from pacing to animation to voiceover delivery felt intentional and high quality.
Beyond the work itself, their communication and responsiveness were exceptional. It never felt like I was “just another client.” They really cared about getting it right and went the extra mile to make sure the final product reflected our brand perfectly.

We deliver your video in all the formats you need – whether that’s a standard web version, a square cut for social media, subtitled versions, or broadcast-ready files. Just tell us where you’re planning to use it.
Do we need to provide a script or brief?
You don’t need to arrive with a script – that’s our job. We just ask you to complete a short brief form and join a kickoff call with our team. From there, we’ll handle the scripting and bring ideas to you for review and approval before anything else begins.
