Creative PAW: Creative Professionals for Animal Welfare

Hi, volunteers! Gayle from The Association for Veterinary Family Practice is looking for a graphic designer volunteer to develop a logo and help with identity development. Her e-mail is below:

*****

PROJECT: AVFP IDENTITY DEVELOPMENT
AVFP: The Association for Veterinary Family Practice
Positioning Statement: The Art and the Heart of Veterinary Medicine
Website: www.avfp.org
Contact Email: culinary@neteze.com

Design Objective:
Develop a distinct identity system that captures the vision & focus of the AVFP organization:

“THE ASSOCIATION EXISTS TO OPTIMIZE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF PETS IN HUMAN FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES BY ADVANCING THE ESSENTIAL ROLE OF PRIMARY VETERINARY CARE.”

Vets have traditionally been very medically, surgically and technically focused. That’s not bad, we go to them for their advice and expertise! However, recognizing the emerging importance of pets as family members and the evolving human-animal bond, this vet group is focusing on the non-biomedical knowledge and skills necessary to properly care for family pets. Vets often find themselves on the receiving-end of orphaned animals, requests from shelter groups for spay/neuter services, etc. If we can help a vet group enhance their human-animal skills, this will help the animal welfare movement.

Design Considerations:

Logo design to be used in….
-website
-brochure
-email newsletters
-powerpoint presentations at conferences
-business cards
-stationery
-booth displays
-appeals for sponsorship
-social media

Possible components for inclusion in logo:
-Name of organization: Association for Veterinary Family Practice
-Acronym of organization: AVFP
-Tagline/positioning statement: “The Art and Heart of Veterinary Medicine”
-Human-Animal Bond
-Veterinary Professionals
-Companion Animals
-Pet owners
-Primary care veterinary medicine

Janina of Paraiso Felino, a cat refuge in Mexico, has made the following request for volunteers:

*****

Our site has been incomplete for over a year. Since I’ve registered with paypal to receive donations I’d like to add the button and put pictures of my cats on the adoption page. The paypal part is easy (they prepare the code) but where and how do I paste it?

Is there someone who could help with those two things or even explain how to do it?

I’ve heard the pictures are more complicated to learn than text. I am attempting to learn about HTML, etc, to be able to work on the page myself in the future. But that maybe a long ways in the future.

Is there anyone who could help us? I would to be able to use the site to promote adoptions and donations.
