Project details

What we need
  • A high-resolution digital version of an illustration that can be used across multiple channels (web, print, and/or merchandising)
Additional details

We are developing a graphic or illustration for our year-end fundraising and would like to illustrate a timeline of our last 10 years of impact as we celebrate our 10th anniversary this year. We have been running a blog series titled "10 Years, 10 Stories of Impact," and we would like to turn those stories into an illustration over a timeline of the organization's history.

What we have in place
  • We currently have the stories to pull from, our branding guidelines, & artwork, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have staff with a design eye and additional design guides, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,212 , allowing us to focus on our fall programming and year-end fundraising strategy that will provide critical funding to continue programming and operations in the coming year.

We are celebrating our 10th anniversary and this is an amazing opportunity to develop a fun graphic to tell our story to potential donors and current Board members and show the impact our organization has had on Richmond communities. It is critical to have captivating graphics that articulate our work as we traverse into the year-end giving because our organization is in critical need of funding to continue our programming and operations.

Our mission

To inspire equitable community-driven design in the built environment through innovative programs and resources that engage the next generation of designers.

What we do

Many Richmond residents do not have the opportunity to participate in city planning, nor understand the complex forces shaping the designs. Storefront for Community Design is a non-profit design center in Richmond, Virginia, founded to bridge the gap and make design programs and resources accessible to all for the love of our city. We aid community partners in ideas advancing areas of environmental and food justice, health and wellness, economic development, placemaking/placekeeping and design/planning tools to empower community organizing.

Since 2011, Storefront has convened over 370 low-cost design and planning assistance projects and over 20 design education initiatives to community members, businesses, non-profit organizations, local governments, and neighborhoods, with an estimated value of donated services well over $1,080,000. Our community-led projects range from assisting a high school student to envision her idea for an urban mini-farm, to guidance on storefront and facade improvements for small businesses, to collaborating with youth and young adults to create a vision for a neighborhood food forest, and to a community visioning that empowered residents to share their ideas for the new use of an old bank building.
