Non profit graphic design is where your time is donated as opposed to asking for a rate. This does not mean that the work has to be below standard. The rates could also be lower than the usual rates charged. That is, if you do not want to offer your services for free.
All rates charged and donations received are used by the company to assist in the running of the business. It would be especially used for staff training or any equipment needed to further enhance the quality of the company.
Of major importance for clients is to provide clear briefs which would be easy and quick to understand so that there is no time wastage. The briefs must be comprehensive and realistic as well. It has to give the designer the ability to start working toward an end product almost immediately. It also is a great idea for the designer to work on at least three distinct ideas so that there is a wider choice for the client from which to choose.
The designer must also make sure that he or she understands the brief clearly before starting to work on it so that no time is wasted. The time for reviews should be limited so that there is enough room to make small changes and not to be too far off the mark (or not at all). The brief has to be as clear as well so that there is no room for any error.
The client, therefore, has to have an absolutely direct and clear brief so there is no room for a wrong direction. They want relevant, to the point and very strong, appealing visuals. This is true for any organization who wants material to bring across a message.
Many organizations in this field do not only focus on the materials they produce for companies, but they either provide for ongoing training for their own staff or they invest some of the money back into training of young and upcoming designers.
