60th Anniversary Logo & Promotion

This year, CEO is celebrating our 60th Anniversary of Community Action here in Rensselaer County. We are so excited to be reaching this milestone and want to share some of our promotional plans. Attached are some 60th Anniversary logos we will be using throughout the year. The Marketing Department will be swapping these logos out wherever possible on digital and print documents to help promote this exciting anniversary, and we hope that you will join us and use them in lieu of the regular CEO logo on your flyers and documents. They will also be available on the Marketing Resource page on the Intranet for easy access.
A few other things we wanted to make everyone aware of:
  • We will be getting 60th Anniversary banners for each of the buildings to help promote the milestone
  • 60th Anniversary email signatures will be coming out shortly
  • We are planning on distributing 60th anniversary t-shirts to all staff in May
  • We have our 60th Anniversary Community Action Luncheon planned for May 22, more communications about this will be coming soon
Lastly, if you have a memory or story of working at CEO that you’d like to share with the Marketing Department to help us reflect on 60 years of impact, we’d love to share it across our social channels!
