CHAZARA Foundation

A few years ago I creates this identity for a US-based non-profit which does amazing work in Inner Mongolia.

The non-profit’s name, CHAZARA (which I researched and was later adopted by the non-profit), is a shortened name of a butterfly that is indigenous to that region of Asia. The butterfly logo was created to represent a positive metamorphosis & freedom through education. Each student of the CHAZARA program was able to create their own butterfly with their own fingerprints.
