Habitat for Humanity of Columbia County is an organization that I support by donating my design services. Since 2011, I have been lucky enough to design the annual gala invitation, the organization’s biggest fund-raising event of the year. While billed as a “Gala,” this is not a fancy event. It is a comfortable, low-key opportunity to celebrate all the individuals and businesses who so generously donate their time and expertise to building homes for qualified and deserving families.
This assignment, while fun, is also challenging. It is a fund-raising event after all, and the invitation has to be attractive and interesting enough to grab the attention of the recipient. It must convey the right feeling and emotion of the event, while still looking professional and trust-worthy. The design also has to pass through a committee of differing tastes and opinions.
