Together, she can breathe again. Together, she can feel human again.Together, she can learn to love herself again.
Together She Can is a non-profit in Boston, MA, that aims to help women experiencing homelessness. The organization collects new and lightly used toiletries, cosmetics, and essentials for women, and donates them to local women’s homeless shelters.
As Together She Can started to grow and create new partnerships, the founder approached GooseInk Designs to give the organization a new, fresh look. Since the non-profit’s rebrand, Together She Can has seen an 80%+ increase in site traffic overall.
Logo Design
Original logo
logo redesign
There were multiple goals I wanted to achieve with the new logo: give separate emphases on “together”—it takes a community effort to help those on hard hard times—and “she can”—because it’s about her and what she can accomplish; create symbolism that gives the organization immediate context; and evoke empathy, pride, and femininity.
