Schools for salone
Fundraising campaign materials
A non profit organization dedicated to helping build schools, libraries and communities centered around education in Sierra Leone. Each year, SfS holds an Anniversary Dinner celebrating the many achievements of the previous year. This grand event also has a fundraising component that serves to deepen the organization's success. The children featured in the materials, benefit greatly by having educational resources, and represent the upbeat culture of Sierra Leone. Their lives have been transformed by the work of Schools for Salone.
2018 Anniversary Dinner
2018 brought a whole new, bold look to the Anniversary Dinner. After a three-year cycle using sun, sea and land color tones, we decided to ramp up the excitement with geometric patterns and bold batik colors. Much work went into creating the black geometric shapes by hand (!) but it all paid off when it came to using snippets for the large body of event graphics needed.

2017 Anniversary Dinner
For 2017, water became the grounding color to represent the connection that Sierra Leone has with the sea. Along with invitations, an RSVP, a Save-the-Date email, we created another calendar (2018) this time incorporating the water theme.

2016 Anniversary Dinner
For the 2016 Anniversary Dinner, a green thematic color represented the lush green trees
that dot the landscape ofSierra Leone.
2015 Anniversary Dinner
For the 2015 Anniversary Dinner, a rich orange hue highlighted Sierra Leone's landscape and cultural warmth to give a sense of place for the first roll out of the new look. With the orange theme, we sought out african textile patterns found on the printed fabrics women wear. Creating a collage of these patterns, the 2015 Anniversary Dinner invitation and supporting graphics became upbeat, refreshing and alive.
