Why a new logo?

We felt the timing is perfect as Kalamazoo Loaves & Fishes enters our 30th year of service to this community. The new logo still connects us to our past - to our roots in the faith community.  The changes are subtle, and yet incorporate a fresh, clean look to move us into the future. It includes a new “tagline,” which now reads: “Promoting a Hunger-Free Community Since 1982,” something that also reflects our new vision and mission.

We began implementing the new logo in July 2011 and will continue to update our marketing and outreach materials to reflect this change. What do you think about our new look? We encourage your comments!  Thank you, as always, for your support.
