Book excerpt: Nonprofit organizations with limited resources are in great need of effective visual design systems to help communicate their messages and focus their mission. Working together, a designer and a nonprofit organization can develop strategic plans and integrated design programs needed to create a cohesive visual system for clear communication. In addition to facilitating the creation of consistent visual materials, this thesis serves as a resource guide for improving the process-oriented collaboration between the designer and the nonprofit organization.
