Lily's Garden

A Childhood Cancer Endowed Fellowship at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt University

On December 1, 2008, a little girl named Lily was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia; she was 7 and in the 2nd grade. Her doctor explained leukemia by telling her that leukemia cells were like weeds in a garden that crowded out the good flowers, and that the medication “chemo” would act like a weed killer. Lily’s disease motivated her and her family to start “Lily’s Garden” a fundraising organization dedicated to finding a cure for childhood cancer, and currently, over $2 million dollars has been raised to support the pediatric cancer efforts at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt University.

Lily's Garden hired us to redesign their website, and  we also contributed branding and a new logo. The goal was to provide information and updates on this very important cause, boost donations, and provide updates on funded research and fundraising events.

Blue Horse Mukwa hired us to design their branding, logo, and website in 2015. They had been a 501(c)(3) charity for many years, but had never had the funding to create a logo, website, or other marketing materials. We were proud to design the brand identity and connect it to the Native American heritage of the founder and director, Rabiah Seminole. Rabiah's award-winning photography is also a prominate design element throughout the branding and website.

Mimi and Moto,

The Motorcycle Monkeys

Mimi and Moto, Two Adorable Monkeys Who Love Motorcycles,

and Their Children's Books and Monkey Merchandise

In 2015, Mark Augustyn and Nancy Gerloff were unable to find a book for their young daughter about motorcycles, so they teamed up with an illustrator and created a book featuring the characters of Mimi and Moto, two adorable monkeys who love motorcycles. Their first book was printed in 2016, and since then, they have written two additional Mimi and Moto books and created fun monkey merchandise.

We were hired in 2016 to create the first Mimi and Moto first website, which featured the first book. This site was a traditional website and the shopping cart was powered by ECWID with an embedded "Buy It Now" button. Once additonal books and merchandise were added, we redesigned the website in Shopify—an award-winning eCommerce platform. This eCommerce website also includes embedded videos, podcasts, press releases, news stories, and customer-driven product reviews.

Special Horses executes its mission by running online fundraisers for 501(c)(3) equine rescues across the United States that are fiscally transparent and are in good standing.

The site provides information on the nonprofit, its past fundraising activities, and includes a contributor/supporter database.

Kare By Kids

Kids helping kids with bullying, being different, caring for animals, and helping fight bad problems like cancer

Kare By Kids began when a brother and sister, 13-year old Michael and 10-year old Merrick, wanted to give kids their own place to learn more about and discuss important issues like bullying, being different, fighting illnesses, and caring for animals. Michael and Merrick imagined a world of colorful dragons (which can sometimes look scary but are really very nice) and dragon drifters (which live behind the clouds) to help kids and carry the message of healing around the world.

Cloud Nine Design was hired by Michael and Merrick's grandparents to create the branding, logo, and website design for Kare By Kids. We used Michael and Merrick's imaginative story about dragons and drifters to create a bright, colorful brand identity that would capture the imagination of kids and communicate serious topics in a fun way. The project was interrupted when Michael and Merrick started a new school year, and even though the project was never completed, we still love Michael and Merrick's message and the colorful brand design.

Pennsylvania Equine Rescue and Retirement Foundation (PERRF)

The Pennsylvania Equine Rescue and Retirement Foundation (PERRF) is dedicated to saving, protecting and rehabilitating abused and neglected horses. They also work to protect horses through legislation and educate the humane treatment of horses everywhere, and their programs include Community Outreach, Heros and Horses, and Micro-Rescue.

PERRF hired us to do their branding, logo, and website before they officially launched as a 501(c)(3) charity. They requested a formal, fancy, and regal brand identity with a logo that resembled "a coat of arms," so we combined black and white backgrounds with different shades of purple accents.

Mr Nail Head provides handyman and restoration services, and total home renovations with luxury upgrades. Their professional, independent contractors are highly-skilled craftsmen with years of experience and they make sure the unique vision for each home improvement and/or repair project becomes a reality.

Mr Nail Head hired us in 2014 to design their branding, logo, and website. They were a brand new business and their only design guideline was to "create something that looks like (insert top home improvement big box store's name here). The challenge was to create a tie in to that store, without infringing on its copyright, so we used related colors and fonts in the logo and throughout the website. We also created a brand identity that made them look much larger than a one-man shop, and since 2014, they have successfully expanded their service areas into two states.
