Project Overview

Kid City needs a branding refresh (but not completely new) for its annual fundraiser (October 12). The current branding has great energy and really cute illustrations, but the designer is no longer available. We are looking for a volunteer who could create some new images in the same style, design the save the date and invitation, and provide design elements so that staff can use them in social media, email blasts, fundraising platforms, signage, etc.

This is really a fun project and a great event, but it needs the hand of a great illustrator and graphic designer! We would love to have a save the date ready to send out by July 4th, branding by mid or end of July, and invitation to the printer mid-August.

This fundraiser is KEY to meeting Kid City's fundraising goals this year. We have a mailing list of 700 that LOVES getting our invitations every year. this event generates at least $50K for Kid City -- and we would love to raise more. We can't do it without a really good branding refresh. Please help us meet our fundraising goals!

We have previous adobe illustrator files that can be adapted so that a designer doesn't have to start from the beginning. We have the copy ready for the save-the-date, and we are ready to go! The save-the-date will be digital only and will be blasted to our whole email list, and on instagram, facebook, and linked-in. We should have the copy read for the invitation itself ready soon!
