Pedalin' with a Purpose: In Colorado now!

Just an update on the 3 fearless pedalers who are on day 30 of their trip and now in Colorado!

You can check out their trip updates and follow their progress here.  If you haven't had a chance to donate yet, or purchase your totally awesome pedalin' with a purpose gear (proceeds going to the wounded warrior project) then check out this site to get some.

Thanks Joel, Pete and Dan for raising awareness for the wounded warrior project! You are an amazing group and we wish you the best as you finish this journey up.

Sawtooth Soldiers Logo Design

I've had the pleasure of being asked to do some logo designs for a friend who with 3 others is ambitiously planning to climb Mt. McKinley in  a week! They are climbing the peak to raise awareness and support for the Wounded Warrior Project as well and you can check out their plan and itinerary here.

The boys already knew that their name for this project was the Sawtooth Soldiers with a purpose statement/ tagline of awareness, brotherhood and adventure. They also already knew that they wanted to incorporate a whip saw into the logo as well as the mountain. I came up with a couple of examples, and color may still need to be fine-tuned but this is that (almost) finished product.

Hopefully you can start looking for this in a plethora of promotional items such as t-shirts! It's a pretty fun logo - you have to admit.

Good luck boys!

Pedalin' with a Purpose Postcard Idea

So after much brainstorming and sketching based on the Ork posters I posted a little while ago this is the post card concept I came up with for the PwaP boys. The idea is so that while they're on their trip they can circle, check, x or mark in whatever way they'd like the location they are currently at to send out. They can also hand these out as promotional material where people can mark and sketch on it in the same way.

We might do a couple of rounds of this but this is the initial concept with a hand sketched and lettered United States as the main portion of the post card.

Updated PwaP logo

So not wanting to change the original logo that these biking boys have been using too drastically we've come up with a happy, simple update that is vector based so that we can use it on a variety of promo materials. First steps: business cards and postcards and then on to bumper stickers and buttons. I'll keep you updated as to where you can find the goods to support this group!

Also on a side note - if you've been leaving comments and I haven't responded it's because I haven't been getting any.... thoughts anyone? Just email me at lwilliams.design@gmail.com. Thanks! 

Pedalin' for a Purpose

So I'm working on a bunch of promo material for a couple friends, 3 to be exact, who plan on biking cross country to raise support for the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) which helps wounded soldiers transition to civilian life. Please check out their website to learn more about the project.

Peadlin' for a Purpose has their website setup with info about the undertaking as well as a donation page that donates under their mission to the WWP. We're trying to raise awareness and have a goal of $250,000 in donations for the Wounded Warrior Project. Check them out at: www.pedalinwithapurpose.com. You can see the map of the route the want to take from Portland, Me to Portland, OR and then down to California so you can head out to support them if they're coming through your area.

I will be posting updates as I get the promo material together so you can find it and promote the project yourself with your friends. In the meantime go to the donation page and please donate whatever you can for this wonderful program. Thanks!
