RE: Project HOPE Logo
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Project HOPE Steering Committee has been discussing the need for a Project
HOPE logo for about six months. The logo will provide a visual to help raise awareness
and educate the community about the mission of Project HOPE. The logo will represent
Project HOPE's involvement when we sponsor or partner to host events and programs.
Additionally, the logo could be attached to programs and projects in the community that
shared a similar mission of improving the economic situation for those that are
unemployed and underemployed. For example, the Getting Ahead program is not
administered by Project HOPE, however it shares similar goals. We could attach our
logo to this program to show the public that this program helps meet the goals of Project
HOPE in our community.
Tim Olson, AmeriCorps Promise Fellow at the Community Foundation, created two
logos for the steering committee to review. On March 13, 2009, the Project HOPE
Steering Committee met and selected a logo to be sent to the City Council for approval.
The committee voted unanimously for the attached, logo. This logo represents the
community and provides a positive, empowering feeling. The Project HOPE Steering
Committee hopes the City Council will approve this logo as a visual representation of
Project HOPE.
RECOMMENDATION
For the City Council to approve the attached logo as the visual system of Project HOPE.
