About this project
AfterSchool Works! New York and New York Afterschool Network were going through an exciting merger where they would work to increase access for youth to high-quality afterschool and out-of-school-time programs. They were in need of a graphic designer to create transitional business cards and letterhead including both organizations’ names and logos. The designs would help the two groups convey the newly merged organization without losing the credibility that either former organization has built over the past decade or longer.
I came across this philanthropic opportunity on Taproot+ and was very drawn to the newly merged organization’s mission. Growing up, both my parents worked the standard 9-5pm shifts, and I was always busy with afterschool care, clubs, or sports. The mentors I had in those programs have shaped the person I am today. So much so, that I even returned to a local grade school as a volunteer girls basketball coach. I had a great experience working with the organization, and was happy to provide them with collateral that they could distribute proudly.
