Thanks for the submissions so far. Some general feedback - we're really trying to get away from the religious imagery. We're assuming that the "Ministries" word in the name will communicate our identity as a Christian organization, and would like for the symbol used to most likely avoid using a cross or dove, etc., since it will be difficult to use without being cliché. We're open to very subtle hints at the religious affiliation, but certainly don't want it to be the first thing noticed in the logo, overall.

Just a note - be sure not to add the "E" onto the end of "Sav". The correct spelling should be "Sav A Life". We're open to variations on the letter case (upper or lower is fine) and color, space or no spaces, as long as it is somewhat clear where one word ends and how to pronounce the words. Sorry for the confusing name.

Would like to see a slightly new direction in the submissions:

Open to more complex illustration, but remaining sort of abstract in nature. Would also like the submissions to be more masculine, to appeal to our donors, more than feminine, which is our clientele. So let's shoot for more professional, masculine kind of a look.

To avoid: any overtly religious or cliche icons (crosses, hearts, doves, etc).

Thanks!

Be sure to spell Sav a Life ("Life" rather than "Live").

Thanks

We are liking the softer colors overall, specifically the blue & green pairs are a little too strong. We'd like to see the green's removed and a less contrasting color paired.

Also, dark grey text is preferred to black text.

Contest Note: Hi all this contest is extended. The client requested more time for the following reason:

Late designs need chance for revisions.

Feel free to submit designs that also leave the slogan off.

We’d like to see a darker, more navy blue rather than royal blue. Or using something that coordinates with our Caring Solutions logo colors: Green: 43-0-34-0 (CMYK)Grey: 49-32-37-1 (CMYK). We would like no gradient on the text. We’re liking less space between the letters of Sav A Life.
