Annual report design for NGOs and companies

Annual reports that people actually read: clear structure, real photos, checked numbers and a design that carries your results.

An online service for organisations worldwide, from our studio in Kigali, Rwanda.

We can write, edit, photograph and design the whole report, or design it from your text and data.

We worked with TrueStory Africa for documentary coverage during a field assignment and the experience was excellent throughout. The team was professional, respectful in communities and very strong at capturing authentic moments naturally. The final visuals were powerful and professionally edited.

Questions people ask

What should an NGO annual report include?

A message from leadership, the year in numbers, two or three stories that show change, results against goals, finances, partners and a clear way to support or contact you.

How long does annual report design take?

Usually four to eight weeks from final text and data, depending on the number of pages and approval rounds. We agree the timeline in writing.

Can you write the annual report too?

Yes. We interview your team, write and edit the text and check every figure, or work from text you provide.

Do you design annual reports for organisations outside Africa?

Yes. We work online with organisations worldwide and deliver files ready for print or web anywhere.

Can you make the report accessible?

Yes. We use readable type, strong contrast, alt text for images and a logical reading order in the digital PDF.
