Brand Toolkit for Grantees
As Rhode Island’s only community foundation, we mobilize generosity and motivate change that makes a difference. Since 1916, we’ve been a funder and true partner to those who help this state thrive, working hard at each table, across every community, by their side to improve the lives of all Rhode Islanders. Only together, through strong collaboration and building on work that’s come before, can we create progress that lasts. We share the information below to help communicate the important work of our partners and how the Rhode Island Foundation is by their side every step of the way.
