Jesuit Volunteer Corps Northwest
Jesuit Volunteer Corps Northwest places and supports volunteers in cities and rural areas from Montana to Alaska. Sheepscot helps them devise and execute digital communication strategies to bridge such broad geographic reach.
PRINT MAGAZINE
Jesuit Volunteer Corps Northwest asked Sheepscot to redesign its organizational magazine for a new generation. Traditionally printed in black and white on stapled newsprint, the old design fell short both in appearance and content.
Sheepscot designed and published the 32-page, inaugural edition in Fall 2021 to rave reviews from staff, alumni, volunteers and program partners. Original photography enlivens the cover and interior pages alongside on-brand graphics and carefully edited copy. The Fall 2022 edition landed in alumni mailboxes in September.
FOR THE FOUR
When COVID-19 caused JVC Northwest to cancel its annual Seattle fundraiser, we assured them that the shift to digital could inspire an increase in fundraising if planned well, even under the circumstances. After all, historically, the event had been accessible only to supporters in Seattle; now it would be open to everyone.
We quickly rallied with the staff and its live event production contractors to create JVC Northwest’s first-ever virtual fundraising event, a week-long celebration of the organization’s core values. The result? More than $134,000 in donations to JVC Northwest, more than they’d ever raised at the Seattle luncheon.
As part of this highly collaborative effort, Sheepscot:
Named the event and created its graphic identity
Designed and produced print and digital invitations among other promotional collateral
Designed, built and managed the event’s web page
Produced the event kickoff video
EVENT BRANDING AND COLLATERAL
PHOTOGRAPHY
Each year, we spend time with JVCNW volunteers, capturing intimate, spontaneous moments at work and in their shared communities.
