King Cove Strong
Hello! We are two Alaskan ladies, that grew up in King Cove, a rural town on the Aleutian chain. Together, we formed a business that would help community members, in King Cove, that were diagnosed with cancer. THAT’S WHERE IT ALL STARTED! With the help of Amanda Rose Warren, an amazing Alaskan artist, and our cultural surroundings, our logo was created. Our logo is a direct reflection of our community’s strength, determination, perseverance, and beauty. About our logo: the salmon represents the root of our community – which ties us together. Morgan Point, our West entrance into King Cove; welcomes all home. The waves represent our lives and our hardships. The anchor, keeps us grounded. The line holds us tight. The buoys keep us afloat. The cancer-related ribbons symbolize the fight and reason behind King Cove Strong. A portion of our proceeds will go directly to the King Cove Cancer Fund. As a community, we will fight and win. We are King Cove Strong. Follow King Cove Strong on Facebook or email them at [email protected].
