Our partnership with GB Magazine has been instrumental in moving Ronald McDonald House Charites® of San Diego forward in our culturally rich and diverse community and has helped put us on the map of charitable organizations in San Diego County. Whether getting the word out about a charitable event or founding and sponsoring our “Latinas y Amigas Day of Joy,” this incredible organization models “giving back” each and every day.

Academy of Our Lady of Peace (OLP), the oldest and only all girls’ high school in San Diego, had been the region’s “best kept secret.” Our partnership with GB has broadened our school’s recognition to a larger constituent base as well as reconnected friends in the community to important OLP events. Lending an onsite presence, GB reports holistically with intentional prose and photo presentation. OLP is grateful for the partnership with GB, which has opened doors for other media and business partnerships.

My company Southwest Airlines has directly benefitted from the opportunities provided by Giving Back Magazine. It is not uncommon to attend a signature event in San Diego and be approached by several people commenting on our presence and message we offer through Giving Back Magazine. I honestly believe that through their strategic recommendations and support, Southwest Airlines is increasing its Customer base and loyalty in San Diego.

l love what Giving Back has done in amplifying our work beyond our bubble of supporters. We have been in a relationship with the magazine for nearly a decade. We have used the cover of the magazine to promote major expansion projects (such as our $53 million site scheduled to open late 2024) to thanking the community for PPE during the pandemic to highlighting or gala chairs. We also use our monthly articles to inform our greater community of the vast services and impact we are making program by program, patient by patient.
We find the magazine a great way to showcase our needs, solutions, and give credit to our supporters.
