Northwestern Settlement FY19 Annual Report
Written and designed for Northwestern Settlement
Published and distributed late 2019 My first attempt at an annual report was rough at best. While I had the design skills necessary, I couldn't figure out an overarching theme that would tie everything together. Coupled with a short-staffed department and a lack of assistance, my first annual report wasn't completed until March of the following fiscal year. I vowed to do better in the FY19 report, and I stepped up to the challenge with gusto. Realizing our programs not only impacted our bottom line, I went to each program director to find a participant that had a compelling story. The theme "Eight Paths. One Impact." was to showcase the variety of ways people come to the organization and share commonalities beyond the typical story of struggling with poverty. As you will see, I connected all the stories with how the Settlement feels like home to each storyteller, which truly creates an impactful image for those who will receive and read the annual report. All the interviews, writing, and design was done by me and I feel very proud of this product -- especially compared to last year! |
