Details:
Thinkso’s team of designers, writers, and strategists will provide your organization with a comprehensive rebrand for free, including:
Here’s how it works:
- Call for Entries: January 4 – April 1, 2022
- Charities and nonprofits that qualify submit applications by filling out this form.
- Finalist Presentations: May 16 – 20, 2022
- Thinkso selects a group of finalists from the application pool. These organizations will be asked to make a presentation to Thinkso so that they can get to know each of them, understand why they need a new brand identity/website, and determine who is the best fit for our resources this year. (They will provide finalists with more details in advance of the presentation so that they can properly prepare.)
- Give a Brand! Recipient Announced: June 8, 2022
- Thinkso announces the organization that will receive the free brand makeover—a new brand identity, messaging strategy, website (designed, written, and programmed), and marketing collateral.
- Brand Raising Day: August 4, 2022
- After a month of foundational work, the entire Thinkso team will devote a full day to developing new branding and marketing communications for the Give a Brand! recipient. Their goal is to conceptualize, execute, and deliver materials that will give the nonprofit more strength to achieve its mission.
In the days and weeks following the design sprint, they will add some finishing touches, and their sponsors will print and fabricate some of the materials and program the website, with the goal of delivering everything before year’s end.
