Pinterest Purpose
Launching Pinterests Social Impact & Philanthropy platform — through naming and brand identity — to help grow investment in a more inspired future.
While inspiration has always been at the core of Pinterest, the focus of Purpose’s social impact and philanthropy is on emotional wellbeing. When people are more emotionally well, they are more able to receive and respond to inspiration. And more inspired people will make the world better for everyone. The brand expresses this idea with illustrations of positivity, growth, and hope.
