Great format. Photos and interior design are very engaging and feel very dynamic. I would love this as my campaign piece.
University High School builds a strong case for investing in their community to help take it to the Next Level. Funds will support five critical areas and bring about enhancements that will not only positively impact the school, but place UHS in a leadership role within the secondary education community. It’s time to take it to the Next Level, don’t you agree?
The execution is bold and attention-grabbing in both the design, as well as the appeal. It's direct and it's impactful.

Fun and very energetic, this looks like a school that donors would love to get behind. Also works really well within their brand.
Are you all in? My answer is a resounding — YES! Hackley’s Beyond Boundaries asks the community to unite, elevate and create. The piece mixes in great copy, quotes from the community, engaging photos, and student drawings. It clearly articulates how the campaign funds will be used and to what end — to “deepen — and even transform — the impact of a Hackley education.”

It’s “time” at Poly Prep. The new Poly Arts Center will allow students time to play, move, show, create and share. By investing in the campaign, students will have access to state-of-the-art facilities to inspire their creative talents. I loved how Poly showcased prominent alumni in the arts to highlight the school’s track record in developing talent, too.
