The Challenge

United Way Greater Triangle entered a pivotal moment: the global United Way brand was refreshing, and UWGT needed to align — while keeping a strong local identity.

Their messaging had grown complex. Their website didn't reflect the scale of their work. And their team needed marketing clarity and capacity to support growing fundraising goals.

The Opportunity

We partnered with UWGT to clarify their story, activate the refreshed brand locally, and rebuild their digital presence for donors, partners, and community members.

The Result

UWGT now operates with a clear messaging foundation and cohesive brand presence aligned with the global United Way system. Their website communicates impact with confidence, and their team has the tools and structure to strengthen fundraising conversations and expand regional impact.

Core Messaging

We developed a comprehensive messaging framework to unify UWGT's voice across every touchpoint.

Why Statement

Because everyone deserves the opportunity to move from crisis to stability to thriving.

Vision

We envision a region where lives are transformed through expanded opportunity and stronger communities.

Mission

We invest in, convene, and amplify community-driven solutions so everyone in the Triangle can thrive.

Tagline

Invest. Convene. Amplify.

Launching UWGT

To support UWGT's expanded focus on workforce development, we launched Future of Work as a distinct, forward-looking identity within the United Way ecosystem.

We developed the logo and visual identity, crafted launch messaging, and designed a full suite of assets — slide deck template, email campaign, LinkedIn graphics, and a dedicated landing page.

Future of Work is now positioned to convene partners, attract investment, and drive long-term economic impact across the Triangle.

Website Design

We reimagined UWGT's website to reflect their regional leadership and support sustained engagement.

Built on WordPress, the site features:

  • Mobile-first, user-centered design
  • SEO baseline optimization
  • Clear donor pathways and integrated calls to action
  • Minimal plugins for long-term security
  • Staff training to manage content internally

The result is a secure, modern platform that builds trust and supports fundraising growth.

Graphic Design

As UWGT implemented the refreshed global brand, we ensured visual consistency across every piece — from board decks and newsletters to sponsorship packets and year-end appeals. Every touchpoint reinforces credibility and clarity.
