Brand Messaging call
Faith Network of the East Bay
Brand Messaging Call
Call details
What we'd like to talk about
Our organization needs a new name that aligns with what we do. I would like to discuss what a re-brand might entail, whether we need a full "brand analysis" exercise, and a timeline for completion.
"Phone calls" are 1 hour, one-time calls with an organization. Learn the difference between volunteering on a Phone call and a Project here.

Our mission
Faith Network's mission is to give hope to vulnerable children in East Bay schools by surrounding them with a caring community, igniting their innate potential and helping them to develop academic and life skills crucial to their growth and fulfillment. The goal is to prepare today’s youth for a life of serving others and contributing positively to their communities.
What we do
We provide an array of services to public schools in low-income neighborhoods but concentrate our efforts on four targeted programs. Succeeding by Reading helps improve the reading skills of 2nd & 3rd grade students through direct intervention with its Excel Reading Clinics and supports students through library services and parent engagement. Science Horizons gives low-income elementary and middle school students unique hands-on learning experiences in science, technology, engineering and math; Health4Kids distributes thousands of nutritious weekend food bags yearly to low-income children with limited access to food. CareerBridge helps close the opportunity gap by providing low-income students at West Oakland high schools with individual mentorship, life skills, academic enrichment and internship with stipend.
Testimonials
Abby V was fantastic. She came to the call with a lot of background research into our organization, lots of enthusiasm for what we are doing, and an eagerness to help.
Eric (and executive director Jim) provided valuable background on the organization as well as a 'north star' of strategic direction. It was helpful to understand the what and the why to help guide our discussion. Both Eric and Jim were also open to the multitude of questions I had as well as healthy conversation via playing devil's advocate. They were intelligent, open, transparent, and a pleasure to speak with. I look forward to additional work with the Faith Network team in service of such an important mission - the education of children that has proven to ultimately change the course of the child's - and their family's - life.
