Naperville Education Foundation Launches New Logo at 25th Anniversary Celebration

The Naperville Education Foundation (NEF) introduced a new logo at the organization's 25th Anniversary Celebration on September 28, 2017.

The Naperville Education Foundation (NEF) introduced a new logo at the organization’s 25th Anniversary Celebration on September 28, 2017.

NEF’s new logo reflects the foundation’s partnership and teamwork with Naperville School District 203, while remaining an independent group. The logo establishes a vibrant new look for NEF, signifying who they are today and looking to the future.

The logo has changed, but the foundation’s core has not. NEF Board Chair, Alissa Johnson-Tripas said of the 25th anniversary milestone, “We are honored to celebrate the vision of the founders and to build upon that vision to meet the changing needs of the students within the District. While we are ushering in a
new look, we continue to focus on the importance of the students, at the center of our mission.”
The colors of the logo reflect the vibrancy of NEF, with the green representing synergy with the District, complementing the use of the same color in District 203’s logo. The placement of NEF in the center of the logo shows the organization’s central relationship to the District, supporting all students at all
schools.
