Every year, at the end of October, we fuel up for CreateAthon— our annual event where we pause client work and stay up for 24+ hours straight, making marketing magic for nonprofits based in Middle Tennessee.
On the surface, CreateAthon looked a little different this year as we added safety measures, remote capabilities, and sleep for participants' well-being. But there were also some deeper changes as we selected two nonprofit partners that are fighting racial injustice in our community.
This year we were honored to work with the Nashville Community Bail Fund and Aphesis House, two organizations working to reform the criminal justice system in Nashville. Here’s the inside scoop on the work we created for these incredible organizations.
Their Mission:
The Nashville Community Bail Fund helps free low income persons from jail, connects them with their loved ones, and works to end wealth-based detention through community partnerships. Their efforts have helped free over 1,000 individuals from jail, allowing their clients to continue their lives pending trial.
Nashville Community Bail Fund Goals
- Increased awareness of their mission through strategic storytelling
- To expedite the manual process of data entry to give back time to their limited staff
- Grow their followers and donation base to add to the revolving bail fund
- Launch their Court Watch program and increase volunteers
What we did
- Brand Identity refresh including revised colors, logo and secondary brand marks
- Redesigned website with improved user experience and design.
