Situation
The Wabash Valley Community Foundation has been a MillerWhite, LLC client for
several years. After MW developed a new logo and communications materials
for the organization, the Community Foundation engaged MW to redesign its
newsletter, annual report, web site and other marketing materials to utilize
the new colors and logo.
Solution
The Community Foundation's goal was to present a consistent image and message
to its audience. Working first with the newsletter and then the annual
report, MW's designers incorporated the new look and images. The newsletter
and many of the marketing materials were created in two colors, while
the annual report was created as a four-color product.
The
Community Foundation secured a grant to do a full revamp of
its web site and hired MW for the redesign. MW's graphic designers
carried over the look and many of the images from the annual
report to the web site and worked with the Community Foundation
to include everything from its existing web site, plus a large
amount of new information. This was then organized and refined
into a product that was easy to access, navigate and understand.
Result
The Wabash Valley Community Foundation continues to use MW for web site updates
and newsletter production, and MW has developed yet another annual report
for the Community Foundation, which complements all other marketing products.
Through monthly web site updates, MW continues to tweak the information
and the look to more consistently follow all other marketing materials.
All marketing and communications materials now work together to convey
a common message and to signify unity. Most recently, the Community Foundation
asked MW to work on 2003's marketing materials, which will include several
new pieces utilizing interactive media.
