Brand
The Moraph for Good brand.
How to show the name, the logo, the colours and the type, for partners, press and anyone writing about the program. Moraph for Good is a program of Moraph LLC; for the Moraph brand itself, see moraph.com.
Logo
One lockup, two grounds.
The lockup follows the Moraph portals: the Moraph mark, MORAPH, a hairline divider, and the program name. It is drawn, not typed, so always use the files below.
Clear space and size
Room to breathe.
Keep clear space around the lockup at least the height of the mark (x) on every side. Nothing else (text, edges, other logos) enters it.
- Clear space
- The height of the mark, on all four sides.
- Smallest lockup
- 140 px wide on screen, 35 mm in print. Below that, use the mark alone.
- Smallest mark
- 16 px on screen, 5 mm in print.
Colour
Evergreen, paper and a marigold sun.
A sibling of the Moraph palette: where Moraph uses its orange signal, Moraph for Good uses marigold. Use marigold sparingly, as the one warm thing in a view. Contrast ratios are calculated against the colour shown, using the WCAG 2.2 formula.

Marigold is not a text colour on paper. At 1.8:1 it fails for text. Use marigold ink (5.4:1) for small labels on paper, and marigold or marigold light on night.
Type
Three typefaces, shared with Moraph.
All three are open source under the SIL Open Font License and served from moraph.org, with no third-party font service.
Display · Newsreader Light and Italic
High stakes don’t come with high budgets.
Headlines, statements and pull quotes. Light weight, tight tracking, italic for the phrase that matters.
Text · Inter
Every engagement has a written scope, a named lead and an end date before anyone starts.
Body copy, buttons and forms. Regular for reading, SemiBold for buttons and the wordmark.
Labels · JetBrains Mono
PROGRAM 02 · SHIELD
Eyebrows, labels and figures. Uppercase with generous tracking, always small.
Voice and naming
Plain, exact and calm.
We write for people running clinics, credit unions and town halls, who are busy and have heard every pitch. British-leaning plain English, sentence case, no exclamation marks.
Do
Use the full name the first time
“Moraph for Good”, then “Moraph for Good” again or “the program”. “Moraph” alone means the company.
Say what it is
“A program of Moraph LLC.” It is how Moraph gives its software, expertise and people’s time.
Describe, don’t quantify, what isn’t set
“Donated or discounted, agreed in writing”, not a percentage nobody has agreed.
Name the programs as they are
Access, Shield, Pro Bono, Pathways and Commons, capitalized, without “the”.
Don’t
Call it a foundation or a charity
Never “Moraph Foundation”, “Moraph charity” or “Moraph Cares”. It is not a charity and takes no donations.
Invent proof
No made-up statistics, partners, quotes, testimonials or awards. Numbers come from the live database or not at all.
Shout
No exclamation marks, no hype, no “revolutionary”. Sentence case for headings.
Abbreviate
Not “MFG”, “M4G” or “Moraph4Good”.
Logo misuse
Please don’t.
The lockup only works as drawn. If none of the files fits your layout, write to hello@moraph.org and we will help.
