BIG RED FOUNDATION
SOCIAL UPLIFTMENT
TRANS AFRICA
Our commitment to seeing the lives of those less fortunate uplifted goes above and beyond with our involvement in the Trans Africa Adventure. Trans Africa Adventure saw Big Red Design Agency’s Founder and Creative Director, Anthony Kirkwood, cycling a gruelling 1200km over 11 stages from Knysna to Hillcrest to fundraise and support Ingane Yami Children’s Home.
STREET KIDS FEEDING PROJECT
As part of Big Red Design Agency’s annual support for Nelson Mandela Day and 67 Minutes, we incorporate partnerships with well-known graffiti artists, such as Gasak, to raise funds to feed street-children across Durban, KZN. Our theme, “Be Inspired by Greatness,” mobilises our team, suppliers, and community as a whole in aid of a common cause – to see our community uplifted.
