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

Great Lakes Bay Pride is launching a new premier fundraising event in March 2022. We need assistance with developing a new logo and visual brand for the event only, while also incorporating relevant design ques from Great Lakes Bay Pride's existing visual brand identity.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a visual identity guide for the organization, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a committee meeting regularly to coordinate the event, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,817 , allowing us to continue building capacity in an effort to better serve the LGBTQ+ community in Michigan's Great Lakes Bay Region.

Great Lakes Bay Pride has made incredible strides in the past two years, despite facing many challenges related to the COVID19 pandemic. To this point, the organization has not held a premier fundraising event to support general operations. Dedicated volunteers have come together to launch a new event in 2022 with the goal of meeting this financial need and, in turn, allowing the organization to build capacity to best meet the needs of those we serve.
