Local nonprofits can apply now for pro bono creative marketing services through a local firm.
In a 24-hour blitz Oct. 23 and 24, Proximo Marketing Strategies will host its second CreateAthon event. A national nonprofit, CreateAthon operates at about 100 agencies across the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico, assisting more than 1,300 nonprofits.
Since Proximo Marketing Strategies became a CreateAthon partner, it has donated its services to six projects at five Hampton Roads nonprofits. The firm estimates the value of the work at $7,848.
“CreateAthon represents some of the most important work we do all year,” said Will Melton, co-founder of Proximo Marketing Strategies, in a news release. “Given the budget challenges nonprofits have had in the last few years, we believe the difference CreateAthon can make is greater than ever. For us, it’s a pleasure to be able to put our talent to work for social good.”
Nonprofits must apply by Oct. 10 for consideration, indicating the organization’s mission and project needs, and Proximo Marketing Strategies will announce the selected recipients by Oct. 15.
