Packagings visual process
01. Brief
GIVE was an intention and a dream the client carried in her heart for years. After settling down in Australia, she requested to find ways to officially implement GIVE as a brand where 50% of the profit would be dedicated to helping orphaned children. It needs to be a brand that could balance between both being a business and a charity.
02. Strategy
GIVING stems from empathy and compassion. Outgrows caring into commitment and willingness to do something that would make us and our surrounding feel good. Without expecting it back, allowing it to change lives or solve problems.
How can GIVE plug in?
01. Start from the core
GIVE will not aim to fund orphanages, instead it will direct its funds into preventing kids from ending up in an orphanage.
02. Identify the problem or the need
It will start small, searching for small communities of families, then it will identify the problem or the need. What is causing children to end up in an orphanage? is it poverty, lack of education, loss of parents, lack of awareness or the community itself?
03. Direct the funds
After identifying the problem or the need, GIVE would accordingly utilize its funds to solve it.
GIVE
LOCATES
VULNERABLE CHILD:

HOW CAN GIVE HELP?
-
What stops the family from taking care of the child? what are the needs of the family members that could help in preventing children from ending up in an institution:
Job opportunities & Life skills
Financing housing or tuitions
Healthcare
Counseling
Support groups
Care managements or workshops
Selling T-shirts
The main source of income would be selling the t-shirts and then using 50% of the profit into the funds:
Making a strong online presence.
Pop up stores whether virtual or physical.
Online
The online platform is to sell the products but the focus would be on the community and the impact that GIVE is making through their products. Sharing stories, collaborations, plans and actions.
Tote bag
A tote bag can be both a walking voice of the brand and a sustainable multi-use packagings system.
