Brainforest is a Chicago based creative agency, committed to giving back to the community that sustains them. One example of their socially engaged work is Creative Pitch, a low effort/high reward system that gives a new life to office supplies from the Chicago creative industry, by redirecting them to schools and educational setting where they are much needed.

As education budgets get tighter, basic art supplies become a luxury schools often cut out. Creative Pitch is a Brainforest developed and managed program that helps the Chicago advertising and design community provide these much needed art supplies for area schools.

Through Creative Pitch, dozens of studios and agencies have the chance to clean out their unused supplies that normally would end up in the trash. To avoid that, Brainforest designed a process of coordination, sorting and distribution of these supplies to elementary art teachers for re-use, in their classrooms.
