Forever Fighters is a 501(c)3 that provides personalized care packages and support to children, teen cancer patients and survivors.

The most common assumptions about childhood cancer are that 'kids are resilient' and childhood cancer is rare, but this couldn't be farther from the truth. 1 in every 285 children will be diagnosed with cancer each year in America, and the reality is childhood cancer requires specialized research, unique treatments, and a complete rethinking of how we support young patients through their cancer journey. There are no child doses of cancer treatment — childhood cancer survivors are left with lifelong reminders of treatments designed for adult bodies.

McKenzi Fish, Founder and Executive Director, was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma at age 15. This experience led her to a profound realization: the fight against childhood cancer never truly ends. Whether a child survives or passes away, families find themselves in a lifelong battle—survivors continue fighting through the challenges of survivorship, while families who lose a child are forever fighting for change. Cancer doesn’t just go away.

OUR TASK

  • Create a thoughtful balance where playfulness doesn't overshadow the reality of the journey

    Forever Fighters exists to brighten the lives of children fighting cancer and spark their resilience to fight, while sharing stories of their fighters to increase awareness and invoke change.

  • Use Forever Fighter's distinctive "F" in the new identity

    Josh desired an identity that is heavily baseball-coded, combined nostalgia into modern baseball, and was not finance-forward. 108L isn’t just another service provider, they are a partner and the backbone of the team’s longevity.

  • Create an identity that appeals to corporate sponsors

    A deep desire to preserve an American past time

    There are some lessons that can only be learned on the field. Youth sports are invaluable to the development of resilient and well rounded children, and Josh is dedicated to ensuring this tradition continues through Seattle and the Greater Eastside.

How to make a serious topic playful without trivializing the reality

Archetype: The Jester

Brand Mantra: “Revolution demands laughter".

Forever Fighter’s audience (Fighters/survivors, parents, social workers, and hospital advocates, and philanthrophy heads) all shared a common goal: to bring more light to a serious reality.

This project had three archetypes that we considered, ultimately choosing the Jester because it speaks directly to her audience’s desire to live life in the present moment with joy.

As McKenzi is a forever fighter, she posses a wealth of knowledge thatThe Ruler was a better choice because it spoke directly to 108L’s clients desire to create and maintain perfect order within their baseball operations.108 Logistics also didn’t want to be perceived as just as advisors or consultants, they wanted to be known for their high touch service as the operational backbone that clubs needed. The Ruler executes and maintains order - a crucial distinction for a service that handles day-to-day financial operations.

Pssst - we used my Archetype Clarity Guide for this project! Sharing it here in case you resonate with 108 Logistics’ archetype.
