Building your Canva library? Start with these three must-have templates that will save you time, ensure brand consistency, and boost your outreach efforts:

1. Social Media Post Templates

A strong social media presence keeps your audience engaged—but designing posts from scratch every time wastes valuable hours.

What to include:

• Branded templates for Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn
  
  
• Event announcements, program highlights, and calls-to-action
  
  
• Consistent use of your brand colors, fonts, and logo
  
  

Pro Tip: Create a few variations so your posts stay visually fresh without starting from zero.

2. Event Flyer Templates

Events are critical for fundraising, awareness, and community engagement.

What to include:

• Flexible flyer layouts for virtual and in-person events
  
  
• Fields for event title, date/time, location, and RSVP details
  
  
• Optional versions for print and social media sharing
  
  

Pro Tip: Use Canva’s resize tool to easily adapt flyers for different formats.

3. Email Header Templates

Emails are still one of the most powerful tools for nonprofits—but a strong visual header makes a huge difference in engagement rates.

What to include:

• A few headers for different types of messages (event invites, donation appeals, newsletters)
  
  
• Consistent design that matches your website and brand voice
  
  

Pro Tip: Keep the design clean and focused—your goal is to grab attention without distracting from your message.
