The Give Project Logo Design Contest
Name On Logo: The Give Project

What we do
The Give Project will be a website that connects those who have with those who need through a more elegantly designed Craigslist-type website...all for completely free. People will post things they have to give away (furniture, clothes, electronics, services, expertise, basically anything) and others will respond to these posts with requests for the items. The hopes will be to create a free-giving movement, the largest free-giving network in the world. The website will also have a blog attached to it to foster a new age community of giving.
Industry: Non-Profit

Things to communicate through the design
1. The Give Project is a legitimate organization (classic/professional/timeless)
2. The purpose is not the item or service being given, but rather the act of giving and personal connection made between the two people.
3. Giving is the most freeing experience in life. It is in giving that we receive.

The target audience
I would like to connect to college aged individuals because I believe that this is where most trends start, but I would also like to communicate with upper middle class individuals who have time on their hands and items to give. With this said, anyone will be able to use this site so the target audience is fairly broad.

We like these fonts, colors and style
I'm thinking a classic, timeless, retro, or vintage type style logo. I think this will be a good way to connect multiple demographics, from the college aged audience who likes the old school style, to the older populations who remembers when it used to really be that style.

I like the professional yet classic/timeless look of the Coca Cola logo and the Guiness Beer logo shown below:

I feel like these are both classic/timeless and at the same time slightly vintage/old-school

As for colors... No crazy bright colors... i like red/blue/tan/black but feel free to go another direction if you think it will look better.

Heres some styles of websites that Im looking at going for...this may help you guys understand what I mean by vintage and retro....

I also want to mention that I think it would be really cool to use stylized hands in some way, maybe one hand above and one hand below the text with index fingers almost touching in the middle.... I think of the Michelangelo hands even though both of those hands are facing palm down

But this is only an idea and I want you guys to use creative flexibility, so if you have another idea, feel free to go with that one.

Thanks so much and have a great day, cant wait to see yalls work!
