“Many charitable organizations struggle with names and brands that are outdated and no longer accurately reflect the good work they are accomplishing in the community,” says Jim Heininger, Founder|Principal of Dixon|James, who established the firm in 2009. “We know firsthand from our client work the positive, accelerating effect a rebranding can have for mission-based organizations. To celebrate our five years of success, we want to pay it forward with a complimentary new brand exercise for one well-deserving organization.”
