Marketing for Good - redpepper Agency Participates in CreateAthon for 7th Year in a Row
Nashville, TN (PRWEB) October 23, 2013 -- redpepper, a Nashville-based, award-winning advertising agency, is proud to announce their October 23-24 participation in CreateAthon 2013, a 24-hour, marketing blitz during which creative agencies, professional organizations, and universities provide pro-bono marketing services to under-funded local non-profits. This is redpepper’s seventh year participating in the national event, and thus far the company has contributed more than $650,000 in work to various non-profits through the program.
redpepper is one of fourteen agencies in North America that is hosting their own CreateAthon as part of Pro-Bono week that kicked off on October 20, 2013. This year redpepper, who has offices in both Nashville and Atlanta, will be working to create social change in both local communities by partnering with Nashville’s St. Luke’s Community House, Hands on Nashville, The Tennessee Respite Coalition and Atlanta’s Kate’s Club.
“It’s caffeine-fueled insanity. And I couldn’t think of a more fulfilling way to give back to our community,” says Tim McMullen founder and executive creative director at redpepper. “We pull an all-nighter to create anything from brand identity packages and social media plans to videos and t-shirt designs for underdog nonprofits so that they can continue to tell their story effectively and serve more people in need.“
Since its inception in 1998 led by a single ad agency, Riggs Partners, CreateAthon has grown exponentially with 81 participating agencies that hold events in their respective markets. The effort has impacted more than 1,275 nonprofits, delivering more than 3,100 projects valued at more than $15 million.
