Project details

What we need
  • Consultation regarding the Organization's current branding and desired branding objectives
  • Visual branding guidelines / style guide that include specific colors, fonts, and other graphic design elements to use in print and digital communications materials
  • High-resolution logo delivered electronically (in formats for digital and print use)
Additional details

Our local organization needs new branding to attract a younger and more inclusive audience. You'll be helping us to bring social justice solutions to our organization.

What we have in place
  • We currently have our existing website and brochure, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have branding goals and target audience, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,817 , allowing us to reduce our annual budget, in turn reducing required annual membership dues, and increasing members/contributors.

We have been working for two years to transform our membership into a more inclusive one (typically old and white). Since the pandemic shut down, we've moved our programming to all virtual. We used to be able to get by with a weaker online presence, but more than ever, we need younger audience engagement. Engaging young adults in global affairs conversations is more important than ever; the generation gap is so wide. We need young voices contributing to what our experts are hearing.
