Visuals and storytelling showcase the benefits your project and organization brings to the community. Digital photos, video, testimonials and stories help us share the impact of your project with people in the Basin.

Using these stories, photos and video on your website and social media will promote your projects further and if you mention or tag us, we can share your content with our social media followers as well.

Privacy is important to us, so ensure you have permission from all participants before sharing stories, photos and video publicly.

Acknowledge the Trust’s support by including our logo on project-related signage and promotional materials, both printed and/or digitally produced.

Acknowledgement statements can also be included on these materials along with the logo, if there is room. Two examples are:

[Recipient] acknowledges the support of Columbia Basin Trust; or

[Project Name] is made possible with support from Columbia Basin Trust.
