2020 exposed our most valuable commodity — time.
PLUS ONE found light in the darkness of a pandemic, uprisings and immeasurable injustices by building capacity to continue our mission of leveraging the power of sports and entertainment to uplift and amplify social justice movements in a new headquarters located in DTLA.
As a marketing and events agency focused on social justice and racial equity, our work throughout the year laddered up to tangible results driven by our clients and partners’ shared goals for social impact:
- Election of Los Angeles District Attorney (George Gascon)
- Announced Sweeping Criminal Justice Policy Reform
- 10,000 Incarcerated Individuals Participated in our Unprecedented Events
- Provided Over $20K Worth of PPE to (5) State Prisons in the U.S.
- Raised Over $200K in Donations Through PLUS ONE Produced Events

- Assisted in Passing Prop 17, AB 376 and Blocking Prop 20 in CA
- Influenced Policy Reform (SB 13) in OH
