Central Institute for the Deaf
Making conversations happen

a fundraising campaign to celebrate 100 years
For more than 100 years, Central Institute for the Deaf has been leading the field in teaching kids who are deaf and hard of hearing to speak. In honor of their centennial year, we helped them brand, write and design materials for a fundraising campaign and celebration. The campaign raised more than $25 million and once it was completed, we helped CID honor their donors by designing a donor wall to recognize major gifts and a conversational wall for tribute gifts.

We had a great experience working with 501creative on our successful Centennial Campaign. They facilitated important conversations with our board and staff, and developed campaign materials that effectively and creatively conveyed our unique case for support. They also designed our beautiful donor wall that is prominently featured in our lobby.
