Campaign Logo

The “RISE 4 Impact” campaign aims to emphasize the idea of rising and making a significant impact. The colors will play a crucial role in conveying this message. 

We chose a deep blue color for most of the logo to convey trust, reliability, and stability, which are essential qualities for a campaign focused on making a meaningful impact. The logo is professional and sophisticated, providing a solid foundation.

We opted for a vibrant orange for the exclamation mark, associated with energy, passion, and action. It symbolizes urgency and a call to action, making vibrant orange ideal for the exclamation mark.
