EPIC - Engaging Philanthropy, Inspiring Creatives

The Idea

EPIC helps nonprofits with big missions and small budgets market their causes to the world on a pro-bono basis, while empowering creative people to make social change happen. And when nonprofits and creative people join forces, they make a bigger impact on the world than either could alone.

The Specifics

During EPIC’s Creative Rallies we pair volunteers from the best advertising and design industries in Chicago with nonprofit clients dedicated to education, children and families. The teams create marketing solutions that the nonprofits use to impact those they serve.

Our clients have included nonprofits that advocate for disease prevention and awareness, adult literacy, Cook County’s foster children, kids with cancer, Chicago’s homeless population, and victims of assault. EPIC provides the chance for these nonprofits to develop the kind of world-class, strategic marketing that their missions deserve.

With $2500, EPIC could hold rallies for 6 additional nonprofits this year, providing materials they need to live their missions.
