Village Focus InternationalLogo Design Contest

For all desigers: I don't want the words 'Village Focus International' or 'Purple Lotus Campaign' in the design. I simple want a logo/design of a purple lotus that is a symbol that Village Focus (and others) can use to symbolize our fight against human trafficking.

Thanks!

By the way, the comments above (by rinaalan) are made by me, the Director of Village Focus International and the sponsor of this tournament...

Another thought: the symbol we are seeking is one that is 1) easily recognizable, 2) comes to represent our fight against human trafficking, and perhaps even becomes a universal symbol in the fight against human trafficking, 3) can be used by Village Focus International and all other partners fighting trafficking, 4) will be placed on products (food, textiles, etc.) to represent that the sale of that particular product supports the fight against human trafficking (e.g. 1% of the sale goes to Village Focus or some other organization or directly to survivors of trafficking, etc.), 5) has no writing but is only a symbol

This is not meant to be a logo for Village Focus but instead a symbol of the fight against human trafficking

All designers: please remember that this 'symbol' needs to be a simple stand-alone image. Imagine buying a bag of coffee and on the coffee is a purple lotus symbol. These symbol is meant to immediately have meaning for the buyer. That meaning is 'the purchase of this product contributes to the fight against human trafficking' (through the contribution of 1% of the sales price to VFI or other organizations).

Allow me to add one additional instruction: underneath the symbol please include the words "Stop Human Trafficking". The winning entry will have both the symbol by itself and the symbol with these words beneath the symbol.

Thanks

Great ideas and designs so far everyone. I think the key for me is to err on the side of simplicity. I like the color royal or deep purple and I don't want the integration of images of people into the design. Just a beautiful, distinctive lotus (purple and white). Experiment with and without the seed pod in the middle of the lotus, though I understand that is not easy to represent since you typically do not see the seed pod unless you see the lotus from above
