Working with GRANYON was a joint and mould-breaking travel through how we understand the microbial world and meaningfully communicate about it, so all can understand it when engaging with the page. Their patience and persistence in understanding the science and translating this into an interactive, fun, and engaging online experience was very rewarding.

I am so proud of Granyon’s work and the evolution into social impact storytelling! The final result of the campaign is 12 of the 14 men who we featured on the website are now free. It is pretty astounding that we have an 85% success rate. We even used the website to support our efforts to lobby and change the law. Overall, the campaign accomplished exactly what we set out to do: win freedom for people sentenced to life in prison for drugs and change the unfair law that put them there.

Awards are nice, as tokens of something achieved (and as bookends for our shelves).
But more than anything we are grateful for all the people we have helped move. From being liberated from injust imprisonment to help fund refugee organisations. To getting kids out of their comfort zone and into the wild. To helping the best stories get told and get listened to. Or to discover the adventure of our heritage hidden several feet below. To helping arquitects make accessibilty in buildings fun rather than tedious. Or help company leaders gain better mental health.
Or to simply sell a nice product, you care about. The list goes on. It's been our pleasure and it makes us proud.
