Summer
2005, Duke Marketing contacted Landor, the world-renowned branding
firm, asking them about doing a special pro-bono project for the
Marin Breast Cancer Watch, to rename and design a new logo.
The
organization, the leader in conducting breast cancer research
that has made a national impact, was planning its 10 year anniversary.
It was time for a new branding effort says Linda Duke, board
member. They were ready to take their organization to the
next level. In order to represent their goals and focus, we worked
with Landors team of naming specialists and designers to
come up with Zero Breast Cancer, says Duke.
Our
new name, Zero Breast Cancer, describes our dream of a world without
breast cancer and recognizes we cannot live our dreams without
naming them, says Janice Barlow, executive director, Zero
Breast Cancer.
The 10
year celebration was held in conjunction with the organizations
Honor Thy Healer event which recognizes those that
provide care to others with breast cancer. It was the perfect
venue for unveiling the new name. The reception from over
350 people in attendance was tremendous, says Duke. We
couldnt be more proud than to see the new name make such
an impact already.
