R&J in Action: How We’re Making a Difference

R&J’s mission is simple and straight-forward: to make a difference for our clients, our team and our community. Check out the updates below to see how we’ve been putting our mission statement into action recently.

Making a Difference for Our Clients?

We earned three awards at the 56th Annual NJ Ad Club Jersey Awards, showcasing our dedication to delivering superior work and results for our clients.

Our team was recognized for:

• First place in the Social Media Not For Profit/Pro Bono Work category for implementing an effective paid social media campaign to raise awareness for Center for Hope and Safety’s service offerings.
• Second place in the Social Media Brand Building category for establishing and building a brand identity and social media presence for NJ4S Bergen.
• Award of Excellence in the Public Relations Special Event/Client Celebration category for its ribbon-cutting event and integrated communications campaign for West Side Square Development Fund.?

The Jersey Awards honor communications agencies and professionals who demonstrate excellence through effective advertising, marketing and public relations campaigns. Entries are judged by an independent panel of industry professionals from across the country.

Making a Difference for Our Team

We were pleased to award our Visual Designer, Dexter Cheng, with the R&J Make a Difference Award, a quarterly recognition based on peer nominations within the agency for his hardwork and creative aptitude in creating and managing the visual brand identity for multiple clients.

Dexter chose Asian Americans United, which empowers people of Asian ancestry in Philadelphia to exercise leadership to build their communities and unite to challenge oppression, as the recipient of our quarterly Make a Difference donation.??

Making a Difference for Our Community

With help from our team, clients, friends and family we raised over $1,025 collecting 103 items to support the United Way Northern New Jersey’s Tools for School’s Drive. Through our donations, we helped to ensure that? local students in need receive the tools required for academic success helping elementary, middle, and high school students across northern New Jersey get off to the right start this school year.

We volunteered with America’s Grow a Row, a nonprofit that donates farm fresh produce to feeding organizations across the nation and educates people facing food insecurity by teaching them how to eat healthy. Our team harvested 15,000 lbs of corn providing 60,000 servings of fresh produce to local food pantries.

We sprung into action hosting a food drive to help our neighbors facing food insecurity when the Bridgewater Patch reported that supplies were critically low at the Raritan Food Pantry. Thanks to the generosity of our team, family and friends we collected over 275 essential items for families in our community who are struggling to put food on the table.

Thank you for being part of our mission to Make A Difference.?
