The concept for this project was to create a global brand identity and campaign for Healthy Kids International (HKI). This is a Sick Kids Hospital sponsored initiative which enhances the delivery of children’s healthcare in developing countries. I explored the issues of branding in general and specifically branding for non-profit organizations. This branding exercise helped HealthyKids International become globally recognizable. The target audience for this brand is everyone in the global marketplace. HealthyKids International is not well known yet. In order to create and convey HKI as a strong brand,I read Branding for Nonprofits:Developing Identity with Integrity by DK Holland and Emotional Branding: The New Paradigm for Connecting Brands to People by Marc GobĂ©. In addition I conducted interviews with numerous staff and doctors of the program and looked at other similar global medical organizations. This helped me consolidate the brand qualities needed to distinguish HKI as a solid brand.
My interest is in branding. I gained an understanding of the various issues involved in developing a new brand. Logo development and brand identity will enhance and increase my graphic design skills. Branding for the nonprofit HealthyKids International organization raised my awareness of the many issues involved in marketing. It is hoped that SickKids Foundation will benefit from my thesis.
