London Community Foundation

Recognition Guidelines

Effective recognition of Foundation grants helps ensure that the broader community is aware of how donors, through the Foundation, support the charitable sector. This awareness helps generate more donations and in turn, more grants to organizations like yours. Guidelines are written into all Grant Agreements. If you have received a grant from us, you will be asked to:

• Use the Foundation name and logo on printed materials related to the grant
• Name the fund from which you received a grant
• Link to Foundation website from your organization's website
• Place commemorative signage at your events
• Acknowledge our support in Power Point presentations, videos or reports
• Make an announcement at one of your regular/special events or meetings
• Mention Foundation’s support in print, radio or television interviews you give about the project

Please refer to the following guidelines when recognizing your grant.

Print Use

Both black/white and colour versions of our logo are available for download. Ideally, we would like you to use the EPS (encapsulated post script) versions of our logo whenever possible. However, we understand that not all organizations have the ability to work with EPS files. Many standard software packages, including Microsoft Word, can only accommodate JPGs.

Website Use

If you display our logo on your website, also include an active link to our site. Our coloured TIFF or JPG files are ideal for website promotion usage.

Media

All media related to your grant must be submitted to the Foundation for approval prior to being issued. You may not alter the Foundation’s logo in any manner, including its layout, colors or elements. The Foundation logo may only be used to recognize a grant to your organization. Should you wish to use our logo for any other purpose, please contact the Foundation directly for approval.

Download Logos

The Foundation’s logo should never be used smaller than 1" wide or 300 pixels wide.
