Official Exhibition Credit
When promoting your Thinking Money for Kids programs and exhibition, please be sure to include 91´«Ã½ and FINRA Foundation credits. The credit line in written materials—such as press releases, media alerts and newsletter articles—should read as follows:
Thinking Money for Kids was developed by the 91´«Ã½ Public Programs Office in collaboration with the FINRA Investor Education Foundation, whose support made this exhibition possible.
For all printed materials, please include logos for:
- FINRA Foundation
- 91´«Ã½
Guidelines for 91´«Ã½ and FINRA Foundation Acknowledgement
When in doubt, ask the 91´«Ã½ Public Programs Office (publicprograms@ala.org).
- The official credit line should appear on all printed and other visual materials related to the exhibition, including news releases, brochures, publications, invitations, program flyers, advertisements, press kits, announcements, websites, and local posters. It should also appear on any signage at the entrance to the exhibition. On all materials, it should appear in a type size that is readable and appropriate to the overall design. Include logos if space permits.
- Logos: Please use the FINRA Foundation and 91´«Ã½ logos on materials whenever possible, especially on smaller PR pieces where the credit line does not fit. Logos may be found by scrolling down on this page.
- In speaking to or sending news releases to newspaper reporters, radio and TV interviewers, and other media personnel, please stress that the full 91´«Ã½ and FINRA Foundation credit should be included in all articles and features. Some host sites include a line set off at the beginning of news releases saying “Editor: Please do not edit out 91´«Ã½ and FINRA Foundation credits in paragraph __.”
- At news events and public programs: 91´«Ã½ and the FINRA Foundation should be acknowledged orally at the beginning and end of news conferences, public programs, and other public events connected with the exhibition and at the beginning and end of radio or television interviews. Use the official exhibition credit as a guide.
- Local sponsor credits are not allowed.
