Mixed Roots Foundation aims to leverage philanthropy to provide more post adoption resources for adoptees and their families. Our mission is to promote and support organizations that serve as a resource to the diverse adoptee community, create more awareness of the adoption experience, and inspire the next generation of adoptees to achieve their dreams and goals through collaboration with likeminded individuals, businesses and organizations in the greater community

Logo/Brand

The logo/brand of Mixed Roots Foundation was created from the original artwork of the poster that was drawn in 1997 titled “Mixed Roots – Mind Your World”.   You can view the poster on the main History page.

Staying with the concept of “Mixed Roots – Mind Your World”, the fundamental values of Identity, Diversity, and Unity, were incorporated.

 

The brown root signifies IDENTITY:
Identity is to know oneself (Who are you?)
The Adoptee

The multicolored roots (red, yellow, blue, and green) signify DIVERSITY:
Diversity is to know others when you know yourself (What are you?)
The global multicultural adoptee community including their birth, foster, adoptive, and cultural families

The brown and yellow roots united at the top signify UNITY:
Unity is to bring unity within yourself and amongst others (Where are you?)
In order to bring unity, you need to know and serve other people 

True Unity through Collaboration and Partnership for Real Change Together
