Seamgen invites local nonprofit organizations to submit applications for its CreateAthon® event, to be held October 24-25, 2015. CreateAthon is a 24-hour blitz during which Seamgen provides creative services to nonprofit organizations on a pro bono basis.

“This is our first year partnering with CreateAthon and it will definitely represent some of the most important work we will do all year,” said Marc Alringer, Seamgen’s President and CEO. “It’s a pleasure to be able to put our extremely talented team to better our community, and given the budget challenges for nonprofits, we believe CreateAthon can make a huge difference.”

The firm is equally confident the national CreateAthon nonprofit organization will positively impact nonprofits across the country. Since the program’s expansion from a single market program in 1997 to a national effort in 2002, over 101+ agencies, universities, corporations and marketing trade organizations in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico have held CreateAthon events in their cities. The effort has benefited over 1,300+ nonprofit organizations with 3,500+ projects valued at over $20.5 million.

“I am so honored to partner with CreateAthon to bring their concept and our (Seamgen’s) talents to a handful of deserving San Diego non profits. I can’t think of a better way to give back to our community,” said Ann-Louise Strandberg, Seamgen’s Marketing Manager.
