The local Mayoral race was underway in Chicago and the candidates were ready to debate the city's crime problems. Through Chicago CRED, our job was to dress up the place with a modern feel that spoke to a hopeful future. Bi-lingual messaging was created for email and social media platforms to get the word out.
The event required serveral signage opportunites within the space. Banners, backdrops, lanyards, t-shirts and podium signs were created to bring it all together.
Last, who doesn't want to give the sponsors some. Signage was created to showcase and highlight support for a safer community.
From time to time, Chicago CRED enlists our help to get their word out to the community and potential donors. With branding in place, we developed pieces to deliver urgent messaging that drove impactful action.
Our work through Chicago CRED opened opportunities to assist other community groups. In this instance, North Lawndale Collaborative wanted to host a community meeting. Our charge was to create a few elements for the event including banner sign, brochure, handouts and social media messaging.
Local Chicago ex-athlete, now coach Kenneth Jennings wanted to bring attention to athletic injuries suffered by thousands of grammar, high school and college students with his organization GridIron Alliance. We developed a social media campaign and flier to help garner signatures via change.org.
Local Chicago educators and coaches developed a podcast for young athletes and parents to discuss meaningful, life enriching topics. We were asked to develop a brand identity and a few items to help get the word out.
...and a few one-offs for the neighborhood, Stroger Hospital and local theater.
We're always looking for ways to improve the community. Helping people get a leg up is what were all about.
