Contest Information (pdf)

 

Description of Contest

The purpose of this contest is to design a logo for the Coalition for Health Communication (CHC). The logo will be used on the CHC website and printed on various materials; as such, the logo will need to be resized easily and look good in both black and white and in color.  Because the winning entry will serve as the official logo of the CHC, entrants must ensure that their entries are not similar to existing logos or copyrighted images. The logo should contain the words “Coalition for Health Communication” or “CHC” and should represent the mission, purpose, and vision of the organization. Further information about the CHC is available at http://healthcommunication.net/.
