WELCOME TO THE AMERICAN VETERANS ADVOCACY GROUP
SUPPORTING VETERANS, THEIR FAMILIES, AND THEIR COMMUNITIES
The American Veterans Advocacy (AVA) Group is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in Southern Maryland that provides assistance to veterans and their families. Our initial mission focuses on military-to-civilian transition support services for veterans in the local area where we work in conjunction with the Department of Defense (DoD) Transition Assistance Program (TAP) to provide seamless transition services. Our services include job fairs, mock interviews, resume assistance, salary negotiation techniques, mentoring sessions, instruction on proper interview and business attire, professional networking events, and job placement opportunities. We’re veterans helping veterans and their families successfully navigate the transition to civilian employment.
OUR LOGO
The Name: The American Veterans Advocacy Group or the AVA Group for short.
The Color Palette: Red, White, and Blue in homage to our nation.
Our original logo drove the design of our new logo, as we wanted to incorporate as much of the original concept into the new design. We wanted to maintain as much of the original symbolism while improving on certain areas as our logo evolved. We realized that GROUP dominated the original design and that observers might not correlate the chevrons with the letters AVA.
The Single Blue Star: Based on the lone blue star on a field of white, boarded by red on the Blue Star Service Banner (Service Flag), which is proudly displayed by families of active service members.
The Triangle Shape: Represents the Greek Letter Delta, which represents difference or change. We are designed to foster change and make a difference in the lives of the veterans we serve. The three sides of the triangle represent Veterans, their families, and our Community.
The ^v^ Symbols that Comprise the Triangle: Stand for AVA and are based on chevrons found on military service uniforms.
The Stencil Lettering: Emblematic of how service members mark their gear with stenciled letters. This reminds us of our service roots and ties us to those who are still serving.
Our new logo embraces all that made our original logo unique and ensures a timeless look that will serve our organization well into the future.
