ONCOblot® – Prevention, the best cure for cancer

… however, if detected treatment caught early improves healthcare outcomes Being diagnosed is like embarking on a long and frightening journey into the unknown. A journey that could ultimately bring you face to face with an opponent too big to defeat, too fast to run away from. Healthcare has a new friend. What if you could prevent cancer instead of having to fight it? What if early detection could significantly better your healthcare outcomes if this disease were detected? Intrigued? Limelight developed a campaign showcasing adults that would benefit from the game-changing ONCOblot® test. The test, administered via the patient’s doctor, can accurately detect 25 different forms of cancer. The ONCOblot® blood test can detect a tiny amount of the diseased

Fare Share Food Bank

The Northumberland Fare Share Food Bank was created in the mid-1980s to fulfill a "temporary" need in the community shaken by recession, job loss and multiple industry closures. Thirty years later, Fare Share's doors are still open and that original need has multiplied, with 1,700+ people seeking assistance from the food bank each month–the highest numbers Fare Share has seen to date. What Limelight discovered at Fare Share was a committed volunteer crew working without compensation, investing not just their time, but also their own resources into this critical support service. Some volunteers have been there for more than 20 years.

Punk Rock Produce – Campaign to feed

BRAND IDENTITY • PRINT COLLATERAL • SOCIAL MEDIA • COLLATERAL • FUNDRAISING • VOLUNTEERING • WEBSITE • MOBILE RESPONSIVE CAMPAIGN The idea of creating a sustainable community garden within the town of Port Hope bloomed out of desire to extend Limelight’s contribution to the local food banks and access to the unused plot of land across the road from our John Street studio – the results? Engaging. A quick phone conversation with the property owner led to an agreement to utilize the land to grow a variety of produce that would be donated to Northumberland Fare Share Food Banks. The project drew on the capacities of Limelight staff and the engagement of 31 community volunteers, lead by our art director

Medicor Cancer Centres – Prevent Cancer

XIX – Nineteen Peer pressure is a powerful phenomenon that can engage youth at an early age — grade 6 — and have them exploring sex, drugs, alcohol and cigarettes. There is a steady increase in kids starting smoking all the way to age 19. 72% of those who try smoking at age 18 continue to smoke. At 19 that number plummets to 12%. The reason we at Prevent-Cancer believe this happens is that at age 19 tremendous change takes place. Influence from the original peer group starts to crumble and in it’s place the 19 year old makes significant and invigorating life choices—moving out on their own, a new job, post-secondary education, a new community. XIX is a movement

Valport – Consistency improves the relavency of your corporate image

The high Arctic, the rain forests of Brazil and the Sahara all have one thing in common – Valport Maritime Services. The Port of Valleyfield is located on an island in the St.Lawrence River, just outside of Montreal. It's home to one of the largest consolidation points for outbound and inbound break bulk cargo. Impressive for a community of only 40,000. Valport came to Limelight to better position themselves for growth. Busy while other ports have been quiet, Valport was once one of Canada's best-kept cargo secrets. Today, the facility is known as Canada's Largest "Small" Port.

C-PORT

Developing a new brand name and image for a stevedoring company could be somewhat utilitarian and frankly not very creative. Other factors came into play. C-Port Maritime was named and designed to “fit” with it's place of operations—the Port of Cleveland, but place was not the only consideration. The owner/operator, a partner of another organization—Valport Maritime Services located in Canada, had a larger growth model in mind than delivering stevedoring service.
