Creative Heroes...Mission Accomplished.
Wow, that was intense. As you can see from this breathtaking photo, the white hot intensity that the Creative Heroes had at the very beginning of the 24 hour marathon has not let up for a second. Nah, just playin’. They’re tired, but they were still dedicated even after the the final prints were printed, and the last team had presented their campaign in VCU’S fancy spanking new MCALC building. These young, talented heroes grinded all night and all day to realize the dreams of the ten nonprofit organizations. The campaigns were thoughtful, fluid and concise. They truly showed that they took the time to research their nonprofits. The clients were overjoyed with the amazing work they had done. I think it’s safe to say that the day has been saved, thanks to the Creative Heroes.
A big thanks goes out to our fearless director, Peyton Rowe, the CreateAthon gO! team for working behind the scenes to keep CreateAthon’s cogs turning, all of the team leaders, the student volunteers, the wise mentors for inspiring the young minds with countless expertise, the video team for working the livestream and putting together the interviews and crazy video segments, and all of our sponsors for providing us with food, drink, dessert and prints.
And to all the nonprofit organizations: Your dedication to your organization inspires every one of us. Your messages deserved to be heard in the best way possible. You guys are heroes because of your strong dedication to making change in the busy city of Richmond. No cape, no cowl, no cosmic rays.
All of you worked together to make CreateAthon 2015 very special. You all da real MVP.
Oh, and thank you all on social media for following our creative journey on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and Tumblr!. Heavy online traffic is the only good traffic there is.
It’s been really awesome doing these posts for you all. Hope the jokes were timely and not bearable corny (must resist urge to write ‘lol’)
Excellent job, Creative Heroes. Mission Accomplished.
