Brand Strategy

Who is the target user?

We want to aim toward guardians, caregivers, and ex-victims of sexual abuse. The target user is adults that can become more aware of this problem and help someone in need. Either redirect them to the foundation or provide financial help to fund the available programs.

What problem are we trying to solve?

We aim to aid victims of sexual abuse and spread awareness. As a non-profit foundation, we want to shed light on a very severe problem. To achieve this, we want to be seen as personable and approachable.

How are different?

We want to be more than just an informative outlet. We are promoting physical activity programs as a therapy, among other types of programs. We want to present our company views in a fun and hopeful way to users.

How do we want to be seen by users?

Reliable, hopeful, engaging, personable, approachable, honest.

User Pain Points

Target Audience

Our main objective is to reach our target audience and spread awareness or get donations to support ongoing programs. The target audience we want to achieve is people that are, know, or were victims of sexual abuse during childhood. To make a user-centered design, I created personas. The creation of personas helped us design with specific pain points in mind and be mindful of the impact we want to make with our message.

Audits

We gathered from the research that most organizations fighting against sexual child abuse approach this problem from an informative perspective. Since we are talking about a non-profit foundation, we must establish “competition” in a non-capitalist sense. When we talk about competition, we refer to other organizations that are after the same values. Most of the websites available act as a resource outlet, redirecting the user to other institutions.

This is a sum of the competitive audit findings:    
   Most of them gather and synthesize information from legal and psychological sources.
   They talk all in a neutral/informative tone.
   Most of them are country-wide targeted. Thus, finding information about local organizations becomes a challenging task.

   Since most have a vast audience and primarily act as an information outlet, finding in-site programs is almost impossible.

Final Thoughts

Kids Again was a genuinely fulfilling project. Knowing that I was part of a noble cause makes me happy and proud. Kids Again wanted to distinguish itself from similar non-profit foundations by presenting a positive atmosphere. We wanted to show pictures of happy kids to inspire a hopeful future. Because of this aspect, the color choice is lively, and Poppins is the typeface.Thank you for your time!

Let's work together!
