Meet John, a father of two young children living in Switzerland. John loves Christmas, but as the holiday season approaches, he feels overwhelmed by the commercial frenzy.

He’s stressed about finding the perfect gifts and worries that his kids are missing out on the true values of Christmas—generosity and helping others.

Every year, John feels a pang of guilt as he sees how much they spend on gifts while noticing people living on the streets in the cold. One Saturday afternoon, after a hectic day of Christmas shopping in the city, John and his family stumble upon Marmites 2.0, a heartwarming event organized by the Salvation Army.

As they walk through the bustling streets, they hear the uplifting sound of a gospel choir singing hopeful and positive Christmas songs. Intrigued, they approach the event and are greeted by friendly volunteers who warmly chat with John and his wife. Their children are immediately drawn to the carousel and other family-friendly activities set up just for kids. John feels a sense of calm wash over him as he watches his children play and laugh.

While the kids enjoy the carousel, John and his wife are invited to sit down in a comfortable seating area and enjoy a cup of warm tea. They learn about the various ways they can donate, either with spare change or through an easy digital donation tap. Inspired by the festive atmosphere and the stories shared by the volunteers, John feels compelled to contribute.

As the family prepares to leave, they are given thoughtful gifts: a second-hand mug from Brocki filled with tea bags for John and his wife, and a chocolate treat for each of the kids. They also receive an information flyer with a QR code. At home, John scans the code and is directed to a website filled with testimonials about the impact of their donation, as well as resources for experiencing the positive and Christian values of Christmas through family activities like karaoke, games, and drawing activities for children.

John leaves Marmites 2.0 feeling uplifted and fulfilled. He sees the positive impact his donation can make and feels proud to have shared this meaningful experience with his family.

The stress and guilt that once clouded his holiday spirit have been replaced with a renewed sense of joy and purpose. Christmas has regained its true meaning for John and his family, thanks to Marmites 2.0. Would you like to proceed with generating storyboard illustrations for this story?
