Falmouth Volunteers In Public Schools (VIPS)Logo Design Contest

Linking public schools and the community

We recruit, train, and support volunteers in our public schools and facilitate school-community partnerships in the town of Falmouth, Massachusetts (Cape Cod).

We prefer a multi-colored logo. Maroon (Pantone PMS 188 TH Burgundy is closest) and white are the school district colors so should be given strong consideration in the color palette.
Also note that some uses of the logo will require a gray-scale version.

1. We are in the process of redesigning our website (www.falmouthvips.org) but this is a good place to look for details about who we are and what we do.
2. Our existing logo is 30 years old and has a dated look. We are looking to update our look and feel with a crisp, modern design that will take us into the next decade
3. The use of the word Falmouth, coupled with our acronym (VIPS) is preferable to using the full name, but only when done in a creative way (such as a web 2.0 design).
4. We are one of the oldest and longest-running public school volunteer programs in the nation. We have 1,000 active volunteers who contribute over 45,000 hours each school year
5. Our programs are valued by the school district and community because they enhance the educational experience of our public school students
