Need help telling your story or starting a movement that could change the world?
“Riff helps propel one of the fastest-growing industries in the world forward. They are always available, flexible, strategic, and take it as a personal challenge to exceed the ambitious media goals we set out to achieve together.”
“Riff is a values-aligned, mission-driven partner who is a key force behind advancing our theory of change and strategies to build a truly reflective and representative multiracial, multigenerational democracy. Since our launch, Riff has landed impactful media and opportunities with the biggest outlets in politics for Way to Win and our grantees.”
“We interviewed multiple ‘top’ PR agencies to help us launch the Donors of Color Network’s climate justice campaign. Many declined once they saw the funders and philanthropies our campaign planned to publicly engage. But not Riff City. Riff City told us they thrive in David vs. Goliath battles and their advocacy and media efforts are helping to strengthen the movement so we can win on climate.”
“Riff City has helped bring the most significant policy changes to the military justice system in history. Riff gives our troops and their families a voice, pressures elected leaders to support reform, and has brought the epidemic of sexual violence, victim retaliation and racism in the military out of the shadows and into the national spotlight.”
“As a repeat (2x!) customer of Riff, I can attest to their hustle and creativity in bringing stories to life for organizations that live at the intersection of humanity and technology. Their tenacity and professionalism is contagious and was instrumental in the global launch of Worldcoin – one of the most ambitious and relevant projects that aims to prove humanness in the age of AI while unlocking access to the growing digital and global economy for all.”
“Riff is an invaluable partner to Cruise and advancing our mission to create a transportation future that is safer, more efficient, and accessible to all. They are thoughtful, direct, look around every corner, and always seem to have their finger on the pulse. With Riff, we are lucky to have had one of the most strategic partners in the business for years.”
