Only 0.5% of the world's water is drinkable, with the oceans holding over 96% of the rest.

Their innovative water desalination devices not only provide fresh, potable water to communities in times of need and natural disasters, but do so in a way that's entirely sustainable with zero carbon emissions and safe brine discharge. They are working to pave the way for a future where we can re-balance the salinity of the oceans, being diluted by melting ice caps, and ensure our world gets the fresh water it needs.

The true financial, emotional, and mental cost of caring for a hospitalized child while that child undergoes treatment is difficult to understand. Amanda and Christopher Reeves know that story all too well: When their infant son, Rohen, was suddenly in need of a new heart, they immediately dropped everything else to prioritize getting their son the treatment he needed, regardless of the cost. The road ahead for their family led to countless days in and out of the hospital, but thanks to Ronald McDonald House programs, some of the stressful challenges were lifted. From offering free accommodation near the hospital to providing warm meals, activities, and support every day, RMHC allowed the Reeves to refocus their energy where it belonged: on their child.

When confronted with long-term hospital stays, the mental health of both the patient and their family can often be just as critical as the physical. Carolyn Lee and her daughter, Amya Hood felt this first hand after Amya's diagnosis with T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

From being able to do laundry or even just get a hot cup of coffee, the Family Room was there to provide for Carolyn, all while allowing her to never be more than a few steps away from her daughter's side. These moments of peace helped Carolyn be an even stronger advocate for Amya, and today both mother and daughter are flourishing.

Maine: The Adventure Guide: Outside + Visit Maine

Publisher: Outside

Advertiser: Visit Maine

For Visit Maine, we created a two-part campaign that combined an interactive, map-based online hub and a custom video program that ran on Outside TV and was also embedded in the hub. The success of the interactive hub starts with the design, which uses illustrations to set it apart from standard travel fare and give it a unique tone that captures the natural spirit of Maine. But function is also key. Visitors can choose between summer and winter layers, and then drill down on activities that interest them most, from hiking and paddling to skiing and snowshoeing. The companion video, an episode of US Outside, stars L. Renee Blount, who goes on a quest to discover adventure, food, and culture across Maine. Blount brings Maine’s summer fun to life, and for the winter layer video, we incorporated a Maine segment of our Warren Miller film. The result is a comprehensive, sticky guide to Maine outdoor adventure, for the whole year and for all types of visitors.

Bridging the Gap: Vanity Fair + Starbucks

Publisher: Vanity Fair

Advertiser: Starbucks

Meaningful representation from the beginning of a design process is at the foundation of building an inclusive environment — a practice that is often overlooked. Not having diverse lived experiences in places like the board room or design lab results in an exclusionary world for whole communities like the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHOH). Directed by disability advocate Storm Smith, who is Deaf herself, this video explores the importance of foundational inclusion. Through the lenses of Deaf Starbucks barista Sami Liddick, who devised and implemented a sensory deprivation training at the corporate innovation lab, and University of Washington Professor Sarah Coppola, who dedicates her teaching to occupational justice and inclusive design, we learn about how important it is to build awareness and empathy. The concept of a truly accessible and inclusive space is then epitomized in the Starbucks Signing Store in Washington, D.C. — a location designed by and for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.

Shoppers expect the brands they do business with to understand their situations, preferences, needs and desires in order to offer them beautifully personalized experiences.

The Golden Rules of Winter: Outside + Columbia

Publisher: Outside

Advertiser: Columbia

How to you adventure more, up the fun quotient, or just stay warm this winter? All you have to do is follow these simple rules. We love this story because it's so approachable and inclusive. It also perfectly aligns with Columbia's desire to educate our readers about its new insulation—which is, of course, golden in color and name. We especially liked how the quiz component ("What the Heck Should I Wear?") of the piece turned out, which is light-hearted and informative and was the direct result of our conversations with Columbia, which identified the fact that lots of people want to spend more time outside in the winter, but just don't know what to wear. So we created a fun quiz to answer that very question based on where you live, how cold it is, and what you plan on doing.

Publisher: Globe and Mail

Advertiser: Destination Canada

Every gift guide season, the task at hand is to stand out among the rest of the publishers pushing their own curated list of local goods. In partnership with Destination Canada, our goal was to inspire readers to give the gift of travel - both through physical gifts that might inspire a trip, and through experiences that would prompt the gifter and giftee to take an adventure together. To make these gift recommendations more compelling, we tapped Canadian star power: beloved drag performer Priyanka, TV star Andrew Phung and author Robyn Harding. Each of these Canadian icons curated their own gift lists inspired by real gift recipients in their lives, connecting each gift idea to places across Canada. The result: An ‘iconic’ set of three guides to gifting Canadian travel, just in time for the holiday season.

Like many small Canadian cities, Belleville was hit hard by the pandemic. Many pieces of research have shown that young adults have been affected the most by the pandemic, with many suffering from anxiety, from the impact on their finances and loss of social life.

We wrote about this initiative via three different articles, and they generated over 37,000 reads! We also captivated our audience through compelling storytelling on our More Than Concrete social video, featuring two Belleville locals, John and Jonah, where they shared their stories on how Mentos helped skaters connect, skate and pursue their passion. It generated more than 110,000 impressions via Facebook and Instagram.
