Recently, PUNCH participated in a local Create-A-Thon and had a little help from AIGA Richmond's, Education Coordinator, Peyton Rowe.
"CreateAthon is a 24-hour, work-around the clock creative blitz during which local advertising agencies generate advertising services for local nonprofits that have little or no marketing budget. Since the program’s expansion from a single market to an international effort in 2001, 40 agencies have joined the CreateAthon network, holding CreateAthon events in their cities. This effort has benefited 833 nonprofit organizations with 1,809 projects valued at $7 million."
The Richmond Times Dispatch featured the event and although they didn't mention Peyton by name, we know she played an important role and provided her creative expertise and energy.
Way to go PUNCH and Peyton!
