PRIMARY COLOR PALETTE

Make-A-Wish blue is the core color of our brand.

It should be present and most prominent in each and every communication, without exception.

SECONDARY COLOR PALETTE

Bright colors should play a supporting role. Use them only as secondary accents to complement the primary blue. In most cases, only 1–2 secondary hues should be used in addition to the blue to avoid a cluttered appearance.

Full shades of color should be used as the default; however, tints of secondary colors can be a good strategy for certain graphic elements like graphs, diagrams, charts and tables. Tints of secondary colors should not be used for text, where it is likely too hard to read.

No gradients should be used.

PRIMARY PALETTE TINT USAGE

When using Make-A-Wish blue, the following tints can be used. Please keep in mind text legibility and contrast against lighter tints – reversed text should not be used on tints less that 40%.

SECONDARY PALETTE TINT USAGE

Like with Make-A-Wish blue, the secondary accent colors may use tints, although just not as many to maintain clarity and consistency. As with lighter tints of the primary blue, secondary hues may not allow for reversed out text to maintain overall legibility.
