What is Corporate Volunteer Day?
Corporate Volunteer Day is your opportunity to get out and serve alongside other
companies, working together to make a difference in the Boston community.
On Saturday, May 18th, 2013, Boston Cares will mobilize hundreds of
volunteers from companies large and small in a transformational day of
restoration and beautification at agencies and schools that need your
help the most.
Your sponsorship of a team for Corporate Volunteer Day
helps us fund year-round programming that serves more
than 200 schools and nonprofit agencies each year,
engaging over 20,000 volunteers in service to our city.
Your support of Corporate Volunteer
Day is an opportunity for your
employees to get out of the office and
give back together, while also fueling

Cares, helping us make a difference
every day of the year.

“The energetic volunteers
from Sam Adams worked
miracles side-by-side with us at the
Curley School. Neighbors walked by
in awe of the movement happening in
the schoolyard, and the Curley truly
shines after all these efforts.”
Julie Smith-Bartoloni
Curley School Parent
“Corporate Volunteer Day is
a fabulous way to make a difference
in the community. I’ve met wonderful
people from across my company, and worked
with amazing agencies and schools throughout
Greater Boston. This event also provided a
gateway to ongoing community service for me,
through Boston Cares membership,
which has given me the opportunity to deepen
my engagement with agencies that
matter most to me.”

Inappropriate use of the logotype and symbol
The Bain logotype and symbol are clear and strong.
If used inconsistently or incorrectly, the brand message will be weakened.

appear in a fixed relationship 2 When they appear together, do not treat logotype and symbol in the same way
3 Do not rescale elements 4 Do not keyline
5 Do not squash 6 Do not stretch 7 Do not distort the logotype or rotate the symbol in any way

Logo and symbol usage
The Bain logo is central to the visual identity.
It identifies the company and represents the Bain brand and everything it stands for.
The logo is made up of two elements – the logo(the lettering) and the symbol. The two elements DO NOT have a fixed relationship and are not always seen together.
The purpose of the logo
The logo is the primary tool for branding Bain material.
The Bain logo is unique. It is clean, distinct and confident. The lettering has been created especially for us (the logo does not exist as a complete working typeface).
Using the logo
The logo has two versions; horizontal and stacked.
The preferred version is the horizontal logo, this should be used whenever possible.
The stacked version should be used when space is limited. For example, in advertising, or on vertical ban� ners or signage.
The purpose of the symbol
The Bain symbol is a pictorial representation of Bain values. It is a simple, memorable device which has a direct association with True North. The symbol underlines the uniqueness of Bain and when used, will compliment the logo, words and imagery around it.
Using the symbol
The symbol is to be used as a secondary method of branding. It is intended that the symbol be a free device.
It can be applied to title pages, over�laid onto imagery, as a background, or as an endorsing detail. For internal communications, the symbol can be used on its own, without the logo, as the method of identi� fying Bain.
Care should be taken not to over�use the symbol as this will weaken it. Decide the role of the symbol on any given piece of communication and stick to it.
The logo � primary identification horizontal version
Stacked version � use this version where space is limited
The symbol � use independently of the logo
