There are a lot of tools that can help you create an infographic, but if you want to work for your nonprofit you need some design skills. But a good infographic is not just about being a pretty picture, it requires research and making sure that it is conveying the right message. Designing infographics is a hybrid design skill - falling somewhere inbetween print, web, and data visualization skills.
This post summarizes the design process:
1. Define concept and goals
2. Use reliable resources
3. Data should have a flow or tell a story

Has your nonprofit hired a designer to create an infographic or create a DYI version? What are your tips and best practices.
