About Our Logo

  In fall 2007, we felt is appropriate to update our logo to better reflect our past success and our future opportunities. That decision came from a number of strategic planning session be the Marketing and Communications Committee and involved careful deliberations at both the boards and staff levels. The process took several months resulting in a new tagline and logo.
   
At the logo’s core is a series of fundamental building blocks representing the communities we serve. They are interconnected and softened by an oval shape symbolizing our openness toward new ideas, progress, and opportunity. The oval also creates a sense of movement that draws the eye directly to our new tagline Building Communities Through Philanthropy; a phrase we feel embodies our vision and day-to- day activities. The solid circle in the center of the logo personalizes the overall design by suggesting the human element of every decision and action we take. Teal, the predominate color, is warm and approachable. A vibrant mixture of blue and green; teal also gives a nod to our past while embracing the future.
 
Together, these elements enable us to present a unified, cohesive ace to the public, one that best represent who we are today.
