Creatives for a Cause






Some would imagine superheroes in colorful spandex tights and a cape, going from place to place saving human beings and animals from dangers that befall them. Superheroes signify a certain strength that lies in each one of us, the power to help those in need.

We sit in our comfortable homes, clothed and fed...and more often that not tend to forget that we are a tiny percentage of the world's fortunate ones. You don't need to devote your life to helping others but there are ways to do your part. Ignorance might be bliss, but it is evil.

I do not speak simply on behalf of CTL360, but I appeal to all creatives and clients to be a part of Creatives for a Cause. On an average we all can afford to take out 20% from our profits to donate to the ones who need us most. We have been given our gifts (powers) to use for good.


One of mankind's favorite sins is greed, we hoard money, food, property and more just to satisfy a cardinal hunger for the finer things in life. Why do I need a huge house? or 5 cars? or 50 pairs of shoes? The more we take (because we can) the less someone else gets. How? Well, it is a known fact that barely 9% of the people in Pakistan pay their taxes and guaranteed that those who DO pay up on a regular basis probably can't afford most luxuries in life and like the average man, have to work almost 24/7 just to fulfill the basic part of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, the bare necessities. The people who do not pay taxes, well they're the ones doing the hoarding...for every house they buy, would instead have saved a small village.

If you have been given the talent of creativity, whether it be in web design, advertising, copywriting, architecture, art, 3D ...you know you can afford to help those in need.

On behalf of CTL360, I pledge 20% of all profits to be donated to the following charities

- The Citizens Foundation Flood Relief
- PAWS Pakistan Flood Relief (www.pawspakistan.org)
- Karachi Vocational Training Centre (www.ccure.it)
- Mother & Child Care Trust (www.mcctrust.org)

You can either get work out of us in return for your donation or you can donate anyway. So open up those cheque books
and start-a-scribblin :)
