Branding Guidelines
The purpose of the following Identity Standards & Guidelines summary sheet is to provide all partners, internal, and external stakeholders with guidelines to successfully use The County Foundation’s visual identity. This Visual Identity Summary establishes a basic foundation for protecting the visual integrity of the logo, but acknowledges that not every scenario may be covered under the guidelines presented.
Adherence to the guidelines will ensure a consistent and effective presentation of The County Foundation’s visual identity. We have guidelines pertaining to logo formats, colours, size requirements, and naming convention.
Grant recipients may use the visual identity if they have received a grant from The County Foundation and one of the managed funds including: The Huff Family Fund; The Button Fund; The Community Municipal Grant; Built Heritage; as well as any other Fund. Additional requirements and recognition may be necessary for some funds – namely The Community Municipal Grant (please consult with the Community Development department) and Huff Family Fund (below).
Please take a moment to review our guidelines and ensure that any visual reproduction of this logo is in accordance to the standards set forth.
