HELP US MAKE GOOD
From our humble beginnings as R&W Creative in the 200 sq ft office on Orange Circle, our team has been blessed to consistently work with some of the very best thinkers, creators, designers and producers in the industry. Our ability to attract and retain great talent has been a valuable part of our ability to work with both iconic national and start-up brands. We’ve always had good people working with good people, now with over 25 years of success under our belt we felt we needed to expand the good.
“Everyone wants to save the earth, but nobody wants to help mom do the dishes.” -PJ O’Rourke
It’s highly unlikely any or us will save the world, but small acts of kindness can make a profound impact on a single life. We’re not a big corporation who can donate huge sums for national causes, but we are committing to help at the local level, through what we call “Micro donations” MADE donates a portion of all sales to individuals or small businesses in need. We see the larger charities helping great causes, so we wanted to have a positive impact at the local level with donations requests that usually slip under the radar. A few students can’t afford their books this semester, or a local family can’t pay their utility bill this month? These are micro donations that help the smaller needs that the larger charities aren’t equipped to help out with.
Whether you’re a teacher looking for supplies for your students or need help supplying hot meals to those in need or your bike was stolen and can’t buy a new one, we may be able to help. Complete the form at the bottom of this page and let us know what we can do to help. As funds permit, we’ll select specific needs that we can apply our micro donations to, we won’t be able to help everyone but we will help who we can, when we can.
Want to help? If you don’t have any marketing work we can help out with, you can help by buying some cool merch from our store. This will help you to look good and do good at the same time. A portion of all sales from our Make Good store also goes to our micro donation program, so so some good by buying some good merch.
MADE EVENTS
PHOTO JAPAN
In response to the devastation in Japan following the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, we produced a pop-up event benefiting the relief efforts of the Red Cross and Save the Children. We auctioned off travel photography of our collaborators to connect our guests with the wonder of Japan even if they had never experienced it.
MOTION AT MADE
How much good can a 24-hour dance party inspire? A lot! Raising over $1,000 in direct donations and the supplies for 1,800 care bags for the homeless, Motion at MADE engaged the Long Beach community with positive vibes, drawing out local celebrities and artists to contribute to this community giving back event.
SPOTLIGHT AT MADE
Spotlight at MADE is where creative spirits gathered to perform, speak, make, write, present, develop, mix, sing, share and sell. While in the heart of Long Beach’s East Village Arts District, the MADE Agency opened their doors to local artists and creators to utilize our 2000 sq ft space. Every 3 months, a spectacular event kicked off each Spotlight with music, food and a carefully curated mix of creative items as the backdrop to showcase the introduction of the coming artists. On the daily, the space was open to the public to discover, enjoy and purchase anything from poetry and artwork to fashion and music.
INSPIRED BY KIDS
MADE teamed with Mattel and others to raise money and awareness to local children’s charities. We created an exhibit with amazing artwork inspired by children and the toys they play with. The work by artists from Mattel, MADE and the children the event was benefiting was auctioned off and all the proceeds went to a great cause. It was truely and event “Inspired By Kids.”
