The Evansville Design Group (EDG) announced today that they are accepting applications for the 2015 Design for Good grant. Applications can be completed at EvansvilleDesign.org and must be submitted by Friday, February 27, 2014.
The Evansville Design Group’s Design for Good program creates an opportunity for local designers to collaborate and positively impact the community by assisting local non-profit organizations with a design project. Past Design for Good recipients include Aurora, Big Brothers Big Sisters and The Literacy Center.
One non-profit organization will be selected by EDG by Friday, March 20, 2014, and they will receive free creative/design services for a project of their choosing. The only restriction is that the organization must be a non-profit and they must be located within the counties of Vanderburgh, Gibson, Posey, or Warrick.
“The Design for Good program was created to assist non-profits with their professional design and branding needs,†said Design for Good Chair Bryan Horstman. “Our goal is to build a design foundation which they will be able to utilize in the future. Design for Good is a fulfilling educational experience for the non-profit as well as for the designers.â€
The Evansville Design Group (EDG) is a non-profit organization intended to promote education, networking, and enrichment within and among the local design community.
