After reviewing 18 Createathon applications for more than 45 projects (wow!), we have finally whittled our list down and selected the 2010 Createathon recipients.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to fill out an application, tell us about their charity, and inspire us deeply.
We're grateful.
Flipside's Official 2010 Createathon Recipients List:
ALS Society of BC
Positive Women's Network
Pacific Parklands Foundation
Aunt Leah's Independent Lifeskills Society
Canadian Bookkeepers Association
RainCity Housing
If you did make the shortlist (above), then you're in!
Congratulations!
If you didn't make the shortlist this year, we want you to know two things:
(1) you are doing awesome things and we want you to keep being awesome and keep doing awesome things.
(2) We will continue our 24-hour creative blitz for charity as long as we have creative bones in our bodies. So please apply next year as we mix up the recipients each year.
We will be contacting this year's charities in the next few days to get the creative brief process started.
We're jazzed.
We're excited.
We're admittedly nervous.
But we are ready to help make a difference.
Stay tuned for more exciting news about team members, sponsors, and more!
woo!

Createathon is on!
Great news: Flipside Creative has partnered with Createathon, a continent-wide initiative that sees agencies across North America provide registered charities with 24 hours of free -- yes, FREE -- creative.
From 8:00 a.m. on Thursday, September 16 to 8:00 a.m. on Friday, September 17, Flipside will be designing, writing, creating, concepting, and more for charity. And we can't wait. This is the kind of work we live and breathe for. This is the warm and fuzzy that reminds us why we love what we do. Like REALLY love.
How do you get involved?
Easy. Click here and download our application form. Print it. Fill it out. And email or snail-mail it back to us no later than August 1, 2010. We'll review all of the entries, select as many as possible, notify the winners, and get to work!
Before our actual Createathon event, we're going to need to meet with you and your team, author a creative brief, and get an indepth understanding of your charity and your needs. After all, the more info we have, the better and more bang on the creative we deliver during Createathon will be.
No matter what you need, our tiny team of talented designers, writers, photographers, videographers, and more can pull it off. Logos, websites, brochures, posters, tshirts, and more. Tell us what you need. And we will do our best to deliver.
Why are we doing this?
Uhm... why wouldn't we do this? Being creative is our passion. Getting paid to do it is a privilege and just plain good luck. Donating it to charities who need it most is the kind of stuff full hearts and proud careers are made of.
In the coming weeks, we'll introduce you to our team and the talented folks who are donating their time and talent to make local charities shine.
