We are part of a beautiful community. We give back with our talent.

We have a great team at STIR. We all have something to give.  STIR has the ability to help some amazing causes through messaging.  We give strategically, we give creatively. But, in the end we are the true beneficiaries of our many nonprofit and charitable relationships.

UPAF

The United Performing Arts Fund is the largest arts organization of its kind in the country.  We reinvigorated the brand after it had gone a bit stale and helped them to achieve all-time records, gathering over $11 million.
