Growing a Powwow

The Indigenous Cultures Institute (ICI) is a non-profit organization based in San Marcos, Texas. It was founded in 2006 by the Miakan-Garza Band, a Texas native tribe. The Miakan-Garza Brand represents fifteen major families who, to this day, maintain family ties and practice traditional ceremonies. ICI is “dedicated to the research and preservation of the culture, arts, traditions, ceremonies, and languages of this population, collectively known as Coahuiltecans.”

We at Iron Roots specifically assisted in the social promotion of their annual Sacred Springs Powwow. The Powwow typically includes dance and dress that honors the Native American values of honor, respect, tradition, and generosity.

PAWS For Life

Helping Save Pups with the PAWS Membership Program

Paws for Life is a nonprofit organization based in Pueblo, CO that is dedicated to rescuing dogs who are soon to be euthanized. They bring the dogs, who are often shy or mischievous, into family-style homes and socialize them. After as much time is needed, the dogs are all set, ready to be great companions that people will want to adopt for their own.

Our goal in helping Paws For Life was a simple one — get them more money so they can give more dogs the life they deserve.

28,500

Our ads reached almost 30 thousand people in the Pueblo area which helped raise thousands of dollars for PAWS for Life.

We made a self-operating fundraising system that helped PAWS For Life double its number of adoptions. We onboarded 30 “PAWS Partners” (taco shops, ice cream parlors, etc.), who gave deals and discounts to Pueblo residents that supported the nonprofit by participating in our PAWS Membership Program.
