Brand Identity

The Logo

The inspiration behind the SportAid logo comes from the fusion of sport and aid as well as an emphasis on the importance of youth.

Sport: The figure is a person, accompanied by a ball that is purposely non-sport-specific. There can be no mistaking the sport component in the raised ball, full of kinetic energy.

Aid: Within the figure is a recognition of the aid component as well: the figure resembles an adaptation of the classic, four-pronged aid cross while the orange-red harkens to aid.

Children: The figure itself has a balanced, youthful feel. The curved top line that forms the arms is welcoming while the small torso and overall rounded features suggest youthful exuberance.
