BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Rock Paper Simple, a Digital Marketing Agency, has been committed to making an impact in Brevard County since its founding in 2013 when “Community” was established as one of its core values.
Aside from the team being involved in nine nonprofit boards across Brevard County, Rock Paper Simple takes applications for their grant and the team works together to award one to two nonprofits with a pro-bono website or branding project every single year.
They also host an event they call the Galactic Fundraiser, based around the major Star Wars movie releases, benefitting a chosen nonprofit. This event is organized, managed, promoted and hosted by the RPS team, while every dollar collected goes right to the nonprofit.
The last one raised $5,000 in a day for the Children’s Hunger Project and this year they will be supporting You’re The Key. Be sure to check out the event website at www.galacticfundraiser.com
GOD-GIVEN RESPONSIBILITY
Joshua Adams, Head Honcho at Rock Paper Simple, says “It’s a God-given responsibility to serve…so we serve. This community is our home and has done so much for us. We want to do our best to give back, bless those around us and make Brevard County an even better place to live and work.”
Adams and members of his team believe in the power of education and inspiration and have provided time every year to guest teach classes at Florida Tech, Eastern Florida State College, UCF, Brevard Public Schools, Florida Prep and other institutions, as well as hosted field trips and shadowing days with various schools.

TALENT: In this category give consideration to those who have volunteered their special talents and expertise to address specific circumstances in which the lives of those in need are improved.
TREASURE: The humanitarians in this category will include those who have generously shared their monetary good fortune and/or volunteered their time and efforts in fundraising for the advancement of a philanthropic cause.
