SELECT CREATIVES FOR COMMUNITY GRANT WINNERS
Chartwell School
Chartwell School, located in Seaside, is a place where students with dyslexia and learning differences unlock their full potential. We created a trifold brochure to introduce the school, covering their divisions, unique community benefits and what sets them apart. An engaging, informative and visually compelling piece that is unmistakably their own.
Oral Health Access Santa Cruz County
Oral Health Access Santa Cruz County is on a mission to unite stakeholders and advocate measurable strategies that increase access to dental care and oral health education. We created a comprehensive presentation deck that brings their data to life in a creative and engaging format, a critical tool for communicating mission and results to the funders and partners who make the work possible. We were proud to help OHA show up to those moments with clarity and confidence.
Women's Club of Hollister
The Women's Club of Hollister has been a cornerstone of the Hollister community for generations, bringing women together to support local causes and one another. We developed a complete brand identity to match that legacy — a new logo, color story and typography system that give the Women's Club the tools to show up consistently and powerfully across every asset and execution for years to come.
Big Brothers Big Sisters
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Santa Cruz County is a nonprofit organization that serves communities along California’s Central Coast to create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that encourage youths to achieve their full potential.
San Benito County Volunteer Examiner Group
The San Benito County Amateur Radio Association provides communications and expertise for the county during emergencies or large events. A subgroup of the larger organization, San Benito County Volunteer Examiner’s Group (SBVEG), provides education and testing for community members who want to earn an amateur radio license.
Seneca Family of Agencies
Seneca Central Coast, formerly known as the Kinship Center, provides a continuum of family-centered services to support children and families facing challenges such as mental health, foster care and adoption.
San Benito Agricultural Land Trust (SBALT)
The mission of the SBALT is to conserve regionally significant lands that sustain productive agriculture, preserve open space and maintain the rural character of the county. Waltz helped create a wall calendar to increase brand awareness and raise funds for their organization.
Arts Council for Monterey County
The Arts Council for Monterey County sought out a C4C design grant to update its logo. Using colors and elements from the original brand, we created a more modern logo with a crisp typographic style that clearly states their identity.
Big Sur Fire Brigade
Waltz designed a new identity/logo for the Big Sur Fire Brigade. This has served to boost morale and increase awareness for the life-saving services this organization provides to one of the world's most prized regions.
Live Like Geno
This foundation provides underprivileged youth from at-risk areas equal access to safe outdoor sports facilities, youth educational services and scholarship opportunities. Waltz created the brand identity and website.
San Juan Bautista Community Track
Waltz helped brand and visualize the goal of building a community track in San Juan Bautista with a fundraising site that has helped raise over $75,000.
Housing Matters
With a belief that homelessness should be rare, brief and non-recurring, Housing Matters sought assistance in raising awareness for the good it does for the Santa Cruz community. Waltz has developed the logo, marketing and website.
Monterey Off Road Cycling Association
Waltz created the logo for MORCA, an organized voice for responsible mountain biking in Monterey County.
Benito Link
San Benito County's Online News Source needed a logo that was professional, authoritative and easily recognizable on social media – Waltz delivered.
