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)
What we have in place
  • We currently have a recently completed brand messaging document, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have existing marketing material, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $39,302 , allowing us to expand our reach beyond our northern NJ footprint and engage schools throughout the country.

Over the last 10 years the School Culture and Climate Initiative has established itself as a nationally recognized, trusted, sought after leader in school improvements efforts. While we have grown, our marketing presence has not kept up! We have just completed a brand messaging exercise with a branding specialist and are now ready to bring our brand to life. This will allow us to reach more schools, engage more educators and ultimately ensure kids are able to thrive socially, emotionally, physically and academically... in school, college, work and life.

Our mission

United Way of Northern New Jersey is a thriving regional entity serving the communities of its founding members. With a renewed purpose, all of our work to build stronger northern New Jersey communities is focused on improving life for ALICE - our neighbors who are Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. These nearly 890,000 New Jersey households - and a quarter of households in our region - are working, but are still unable to afford the basic necessities of housing, food, child care, health care, and transportation.

When ALICE suffers and is forced to make difficult choices, we all face serious consequences. United Way is working to shine a light on this population that is so critical to the stability of our communities. We are looking beyond temporary fixes to find solutions that result in long-term, sustainable change for all individuals and families. Our focus on three areas - Education, Income, and Health - helps ALICE at three key points - now, in the near term, and with an eye to a better and more stable future.

Testimonials

Xavier was a pleasure to work with and we cannot recommend him more highly. Throughout the entire project -- which lasted a number of months -- he was thoughtful, insightful, creative and thoroughly professional. He provided momentum and kept the project moving forward in a supportive manner. He approached every conversation with an objective and a deliverable which matched with his great inter-personal skills helped us all. His creativity and technical skill are so impressive. We hope to work with Xavier again in the future and highly recommend him.
