Change the conversation about what’s possible
A nonprofit’s brand is its most valuable asset
Internal clarity and external confidence
It’s time to think differently about how branding can help nonprofits do the hard work of change. Your brand is the key that unlocks your organization’s potential to build networks connected in conversation about what’s possible. It unites your people, elevates your visibility, distinguishes you from peers, and attracts talent. It enables clearer decision-making, opens new funding streams, builds strategic partnerships, and amplifies your impact.
We offer three ways to help nonprofit organizations and foundations build more resonant brands:
Discover
Your brand needs a checkup to benchmark its health and pinpoint vital issues to address.
Refresh
You need a distinctive visual identity that inspires your people and consistently expresses what’s at the heart of your work.
Transform
You need to crystalize your brand promise, and translate it visually and verbally to move and influence your people.
How do we do it?
We guide you
We know this work can feel daunting. We’re in this with you. We support your team from beginning to impact, ensuring that you know what to expect at each step. We’ll make your brand resonant to your staff and supporters, and relevant to the broader network you need to build.
We coach you
We coach your team to wrestle with the insights and tensions at the heart of your work. Approaching the branding process this way can feel hard, scary, and emotional. But it’s a critical part of distilling your brand’s big idea. For a brand to become a true strategic asset, it has to resonate from the inside out.
We challenge you
Many creative partners see unresolved tensions in their clients' work as friction to avoid at all costs. We see them as the fuel that powers provocative conversations that can spark and sustain real change.
