50 Years of Cause
It’s not a traditional agency’s job to make our communities stronger, help the disadvantaged and save lives, but it is OURS.
We created an employee-led R&R Foundation in 2007 to meet the needs of the communities we serve.
Our work to curb underage drinking and smoking in Utah is now a model for many states but, more importantly, it has saved thousands of lives. We created Flip the Script and helped pass legislation to stop bullying in schools. We built it from the ground up in Las Vegas to a nationally recognized movement.
We helped Andre Agassi build a K-12 charter school – we ran the capital campaign and managed the annual big concert event that raised multi-millions and brought it to life –- the school is now fully endowed.
We passed a law recognizing domestic partnerships before gay marriage was nationally recognized. We’ve created campaigns to help recruit more police officers and help build hundreds of schools, one named after our founder.
And in 2024, the R&R Foundation launched the Young Visionaries contest. This initiative gives Nevada’s high school and post-secondary students involved in youth-serving 501(c)(3) organizations a platform to create public service announcements on issues that matter to them. Winners will receive funding and the opportunity to team up with R&R Partners to make their vision a reality.
From preserving Meals on Wheels to stopping anti-immigration legislation to helping build hundreds of schools to creating merchandise to help fund Jose Andres’ World Central Kitchen to launching a national campaign to help foster kids have an advocate … we are committed to better our communities and our world … all driven by our employees.
We’ve raised over half a billion+ for charity since our inception. It is a pillar, a purpose, and the heartfelt center of who we are.
But if you want to know what really sets us apart from traditional agencies, it’s our ability during crisis. When Las Vegas faced 9/11, the 2008 financial struggles and One October, we became the working nexus for communication, logistics, and messaging. It’s not the job of an ad agency … but it is the job of a good partner to the community.
