Logo Background

The Swazi Legacy logo was designed by Nick Parisi when he was a senior at Eastchester High School. When he was designing the logo, he tried to encapsulate our mission statement in a very creative way.

The global image highlights the inequities that exist in our world today.

The large golden foot illuminating Africa represents the steps taken from year to year by the students at Eastchester High School and members of Swazi Legacy to brighten the future of the children in Swaziland.
