B2B Digital Marketing Agency Supports International Nonprofit Foundation
Faction Media, a digitally led communications agency, proves its commitment to philanthropy by continuing its partnership with the Colorado-based dZi Foundation. Faction supports the foundation with pro bono marketing, social media and communications services.
Since launching in 2005, Faction Media’s agency leaders have emphasized and promoted the importance of social responsibility by being heavily involved with community organizations, charities and nonprofit foundations. “As business owners it’s our responsibility to provide direct support to organizations like the dZi Foundation. We also encourage our staff and business partners to be involved with philanthropic programs,” said Steve Riegel, Co-Founder and Partner of Faction Media.
The dZi Foundation, a nongovernmental organization (NGO), partners with communities in the most remote regions of Nepal to build locally driven, sustainable programs that improve quality of life, education and health, while reducing poverty.
Aaron Batte, a Partner at Faction Media, is an adventure traveler and avid climber. Aaron was introduced to the dZi Foundation when he met Jim Nowak at an ice climbing competition in Ouray, Colorado. Nowak is Co-Founder of dZi Foundation and currently serves as Executive Director. Batte and Nowak formed a friendship that a few years later turned into a working partnership.
“Jim’s passion for his work is incredibly inspiring”, says Batte. “Charity begins at home, but should not end there. Faction is a leader in the digital marketing community and we saw the chance to use that leadership to make a real difference in the world—we took it and we couldn’t be more proud of our partnership with dZi.”
