| Our New Brandmark
The
most fundamental visual element of a brand identity is its brandmark.
The new United Way brandmark signals we have a new approach for
the future - an approach that's based on a proud history.
The evolution of our brandmark is most dramatic in its new configuration.
The symbol is now joined together with the United Way name in a
permanent, bold alliance. Its holding device is a simple rectangular
shape that is unifying and inviolable.
The original components of our traditional brandmark - the rainbow
of hope, the hand of support and the person as a symbol of humanity
- have been maintained because they are still effective in communicating
important United Way brand characteristics - caring,inspiring, trustworthy
and approachable.
The changes to these key elements are intended to express new brand
characteristics - innovative, dynamic and results oriented - characteristics
that we need to help us achieve our community impact mission.

Full Color
The
full-color version of the United Way brandmark is the primary brandmark
of the identity system.
It is strongly recommended that this version be used in branded
applications whenever possible.
Pantone, CMYK and RGB reproduction files of the full-color brandmark
are available for specific application requirements.
Note:
As one of our most important assets, the brandmark must always appear
as shown on this page or in one of the color variations described
in these guidelines. Never attempt to redraw or rescale the brandmark
or add other graphic elements to its presentation.
We must use a trademark symbol (TM) with the brandmark to ensure
our legal rights are protected. Always display the trademark symbol
(TM) in the position indicated.
One Color
When
reproduction constraints prevent the use of the primary full-color
United Way brandmark, use one of the alternative one-color versions.
See our online downloads for complete specifications and files.
One-color blue brandmark
The one-color blue brandmark is to be used when United Way Blue
is the only available color selection. See the United Way color
palette for complete specifications.
One-color black brandmark
The one-color black brandmark is to be used when black is the only
available color selection.
These brandmarks should never appear on a website, four-color brochure
or any other application where a full-color brandmark is useable.
The one-color brandmarks may not be reproduced in any color other
than United Way Blue and black.
