Consistent with Rogue Element’s own commitment to sustainability, Rogue Element is looking to provide comprehensive branding and design services for an organization with a business plan, strategy and/or mission that reflects an organizational commitment to the protection of the environment. We are looking for organizations that are dedicated in their professional lives to any of the following: renewable energy; air, water, or soil quality and preservation; reducing chemical exposure both indoors and outdoors; better farming and/or development practices; sustainable products and services; and other innovative and effective efforts to improve humanity’s relation to our environment. If you think you fit this description, we want to hear from you. Non-profits will get preference, but for-profits may also apply.

By means of this Grant, for up to one year we will assist the winning organization in the creation, modification, and/or refreshment of the organization’s brand identity, including anything from logo, identity system, collateral, and website.

The winner will be selected from among those applicants that have a good communication strategy, an enlightened environmental impact strategy and that need professional design services to ensure their message is heard by the community to create an awareness of their business and environmental goals.

The grant does not include outside vendor costs such as professional photography and illustration, printing, web development, travel costs, etc.

Application Process
The contest will run in a two-step process:

Initially the contest will run on www.justmeans.com. Entrants must answer the four questions below under "Submit Your Ideas." The Justmeans community will vote to contribute to selecting three finalists.

Once three finalists are selected, they will have ten days to provide Rogue Element with answers to additional questions (already available on our website at www.rogue-element.com) and will need to submit their current marketing plan. While you do not need to supply any additional supporting documents beyond our questions and your marketing plan in order to have your application considered for a Grant, existing documents such as branding materials, magazines, brochures, or any other items currently in use by your organization can be sent to Rogue Element. All three finalists will be interviewed by phone the week of November 30th.
