826LA / The Time Scouts Handbook
Prepared for Whenever™
826LA is an incredible nonprofit that empowers students through creative writing programs.
What was originally a series of time travel merit badges expanding into a fully realized Time Scouting program, complete with 80 page handbook that I wrote and designed.
You can buy a copy and support 826LA through their very real Time Travel Mart.

- The Kickstarter -
In order to bring Time Scouts to life, we created a Kickstarter that featured the always dapper Marc Evan Jackson. We raised over $50,000 dollars in under a month, provided students with more than 500 free books, and funded Time Scouts for years to come.
- Time Gear -
We created a variety of Time Scout themed gear from merit badges to recruitment posters. All are now available at 826LA’s Time Travel Mart.
- Social -
To bring Time Scouts to life online, we built dozens of post placing Time Scouts throughout history.
