To edit the text in the top right corner of the page, edit the Header & Footer in Word. You can do this by double clicking on the header or footer area or go to View > Header and Footer. Then select the text and edit it. The same text will appear on every page, so try to give it a general description of the entire document.

The text styles have been setup in the Styles Pane above so when you are editing text, you can quickly select which level of text you want your information to be. With the cursor in the text you are editing, simply click on the Heading level above in the Styles Pane to see it change.

Simple Charts

When creating graphs and charts, keep them simple, clean and using CARE fonts and colors.

Colors have been pre-loaded in the theme for the template so that when you create a chart or graph, CARE colors will populate it automatically.

You can manually adjust the placement of the colors and may also have to change the default Arial font to Fira Sans Condensed.

When possible, use flat, solid colors rather than gradients or shadows so the design is more modern.

Logo

Use the CARE logo placed below the header on the first page, or if you have a sub-brand lockup, replace it with your lockup.  Leave the CARE logo in the footer of the following pages.

If you have an internal or external initiative, are a CI member or country office, you have a sub-brand lockup that is pre-defined under our brand architecture. All sub-brands use the same master brand and only differentiate in their descriptions.

To replace the CARE logo in the bottom right corner, edit the Header & Footer in Word. You can do this by double clicking on the header or footer area or go to View > Header and Footer. Then select the CARE logo and Change the Picture, replacing it with your own lockup.

If you need a sub-brand lockup created, contact brandsupport@care.org.
