Services
Our work spans Creative Direction, Brand Development, Print, Digital & Web, Events & Outdoor, and Politics & Advocacy — helping organizations untie complexity and transform it into clarity and impact.
Fractional Creative Direction
What it is: Wrap-around creative leadership that gives your fundraising and communications teams the expertise of a full-time creative director — without the full-time cost. Annual reports, direct mail, event materials, brochures, social media graphics — all delivered “on-demand” and fully aligned with your brand.
What you get: Senior-level creative strategy and hands-on execution, plus training and guidance to empower your staff to create effective materials on their own. Flexible monthly retainer and hours structured to fit your organization’s needs — all the benefits of an in-house director at a fraction of the cost.
Brand Development
What it is: Your brand is more than your logo. It’s how people see your nonprofit and how they remember it. If your organization has outgrown its brand (logo, designs, colors, etc.) or perhaps never consciously created one, 501c will dig deep with research and data, find the core of your story, and manifest it in your visuals. So that people see you — through your logo, graphics, design — for who you are and what you stand for.
What you get: Comprehensive brand identity including toolkit and templates to deploy your brand on every medium. Plus, staff training on how to implement your brand consistently.
Print Collateral
What it is: Print materials are tangible touch-points that carry your story long after the conversation ends — transforming paper and ink into lasting connections. From annual reports that capture a year’s worth of impact to brochures, postcards, and advertisements that inspire action, 501c creates designs that align with your mission, speak to your audiences, and make your message impossible to forget.
What you get: Custom-designed annual reports, brochures, advertisements, direct mail, and other print collateral that reflect your brand and engage your audience. Delivered with print-ready files and guidance to ensure every piece lands with impact — whether it’s handed out, mailed, or displayed.
Digital & Web
What it is: Your online presence is often the first — and most frequent — way people experience your brand. From sleek, user-friendly website layouts to eye-catching social media graphics and banner ads, we focus on digital design that makes your message look as good as it sounds.
What you get: Custom front-end website designs ready for development, along with social media graphics, banner ads, and other digital assets optimized for every platform. Delivered with brand consistency, responsive layouts, and guidance to make sure your digital presence is polished, professional, and ready to perform.
Events & Outdoor
What it is: Events and outdoor campaigns are moments to take your message out into the world — and make it unforgettable. Whether it’s a gala, fundraiser, conference, rally, or a high-visibility billboard campaign, 501c creates experiences and visuals that engage audiences and amplify your mission. From the first save-the-date to the signage that guides guests, and from rally banners to roadside billboards, every element works together to tell your story, build excitement, and spark connection.
What you get: A complete visual toolkit for your event or outdoor presence — invitations, programs, signage, badges, banners, billboards, and more — all aligned with your brand.
Politics & Advocacy
What it is: In the fight for change, design is a powerful amplifier. The right visuals can rally supporters, cut through the noise, and make your message stick. Whether it’s building a visual identity for a progressive candidate, designing shareable social graphics for an advocacy push, or producing print pieces that move voters to act, every design is crafted to be clear, persuasive, and impossible to ignore.
What you get: Comprehensive design support for progressive politics and causes — including full candidate branding, campaign logos, and style guides; digital ads, social media graphics, and infographics; and printed materials like yard signs, flyers, petitions, and mailers. Plus, strategic guidance to ensure your visuals resonate across every channel where your movement shows up.
