Creators for Change is our program for nonprofits and other organizations that are doing the work to meaningfully support communities across Idaho. Stoltz knows that marketing dollars are scarce (at best) for nonprofits and community impact organizations, so it can be challenging to reach the very people who need their programs and services most. That’s where we come in!
Stoltz is a team of overachievers who make underdogs roar! Every year, we partner with one organization to amplify their brand story and deepen impact. With a dedicated team of whole-hearted humans who bring passion for design and messaging, we will partner with your organization to determine the best use of 150 hours of marketing services – roughly $26,000 worth of in-kind work.
Throughout the partnership, we focus on three key goals:
In order to be selected for Creators for Change, we ask that organizations are:
1. Idaho-based 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(4).
2. Have a designated point of contact or team that can actively participate throughout the duration of the partnership.
3. Provide services that connect with Stoltz’ core values of DEI, family/children support, workforce development, and/or support of women and girls.
In the Spring of each year, we typically open up an application process which is brief and relatively painless. Following a review of the submissions, our entire team weighs in on the organizations they feel most passionate about working with. We bring in 2–3 finalists for in-person and/or virtual presentations during March or April, then our team votes once more. We announce our selected community impact partner by the end of April and work alongside them for six months.
Throughout our partnership, Stoltz digs in to make the most of our collaboration. That includes an orientation kick-off to uncover your primary marketing needs and determine key performance indicators (KPIs). With 10% of the project hours dedicated to creating a robust strategy, the remaining work will focus on tactical efforts. Once work is underway, we would love to offer an Instagram takeover during Idaho Gives and Giving Tuesday, volunteer support from our team at events, and other ways we can assist you and your team.
When the work is complete, we provide a full presentation to your board so they understand the value of what we have collectively worked so hard to achieve.. Finally, we offer a post-project check-in at 6 months to ensure you and your team are doing well with the tools provided.
We know you’ve got plenty of world-changing work to do, so we’ve kept the application short and sweet.
Given the current events in our state and country, our team has chosen to support Idahoans United for Women and Families as our 2025 beneficiary. Access to reproductive healthcare is essential for the well-being of women, children, and families in Idaho. When people have the freedom to make their own healthcare decisions — privately and with dignity — they can fully participate in every aspect of life, from education and careers to their own family and communities. We hope you will join us in supporting IUWF as they work to collect signatures and get reproductive health on the ballot in 2026.
*While Stoltz commits to following our process and timeline, we also must prioritize our client work and team bandwidth. As a result, the outlined process may be altered as deemed appropriate. Thanks for understanding.
