But let’s backtrack to the beginning.

For close to 30 years, Eastern Domestic Violence Outreach Service (EDVOS) has been the lead specialist family violence service for eastern Melbourne. However, the long standing name no longer accurately reflected the organisation’s expanded programs and services. They needed a branding agency to help them create a new name and brand which clearly communicated what they do, and what they stand for.

That’s when we got to work.

In a creative partnership from start to finish, our creative agency worked closely and collaboratively to uncover a distinctive new name and tagline, accurately positioning the organisation as leaders and changemakers in the family violence continuum. This inspiring combination not only led to a strong, purpose-driven brand identity which won us a Gold for Graphic Design but also laid the foundation for a powerful visual and verbal communications platform, reflected in our Silver for Better Future.

Following the new name and brand launch in December 2022, our collaboration continues with FVREE to help activate the new brand for maximum effect and impact over 2023 and into the future.

Our General Manager, Emily Dupuche, couldn't be prouder of our branding agency. "Each and every member of the Thirst Creative family poured their hearts into creating a brand that mirrors FVREE's vision for a violence-free society." Emily went on to say, "this recognition is a testament to their boundless talent and dedication. We're all about pushing boundaries, making brands shine, and exceeding our clients' expectations!"

With passion, innovation, and a client-centric approach, our Melbourne creative agency, Thirst Creative is excited to continue making an impactful difference in the world.
