Logos
Thank you for co-branding with United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County. To maintain the value of the United Way brand and logo, please follow the branding guidelines listed below. The logo must always appear in its entirety, without any modifications.
Two logo versions are approved for use:
- Full color (preferred for most applications)
- Black (for single-color print applications or when color reproduction is not available)
Clear Space
Keep the logo clear of competing text, images and graphics by maintaining a minimum amount of clear space, equal to the height of “U” of the logo on all sides.
Minimum Size
Keep the logo legible by always using it in widths equal to or greater than 2.0” for print, and 200px for digital applications for the horizontal logo. For the vertical logo always use a width equal to or greater than 1.0” for print, and 100px for digital applications.
