RB Group – Public Relations is Recipient of a Facebook Small Business Grant

HENDERSON, Nev. - Dec. 31, 2020 - PRLog -- RB Group-Public Relations (RBG), a boutique public relations and social media marketing agency, is proud to announce it has received a grant from the Facebook Small Business Grant Program. The social media giant provided $100 million in cash grants and ad credits to help small businesses across over 30 countries during the global Coronavirus pandemic.

"The commitment to thriving, not just surviving during Covid-19 by our team helped make this possible," said Reggie Burton, Founder and CEO of RBG.

In 2021, Facebook is deepening the commitment to their supplier diversity program, pledging to spend $1 billion annually with diverse suppliers. They've specifically earmarked $100 million of those funds to go to Black-owned businesses. The pledge represents a shift by Corporate America to increase support of minority owned businesses in the wake of the racial unrest this summer.

"The grant will be used to help invest in new technology and grow our business through Facebook ad credits. A big part of this experience is also developing relationships with Corporations so that we can do business with them,'' said Burton, whose PR firm is certified as a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) by the Western Region Minority Supplier Development Council (WRMSDC), an agency that connects Corporations with minority small businesses.

RBG provides public relations, web development and design, social media marketing and corporate social responsibility to corporations and small businesses. Clients include the Vegas Golden Knights and the Las Vegas Urban League – WIC program.

RBG specializes in strategic diversity communications for clients seeking to understand how to communicate with diverse audiences. In 2018, RBG was recipient of the "Rising Star MBE Award" handed out by WRMSDC to minority businesses with growth potential.

"We chose RBG not only for their media contacts, but because they also understand the unique challenges of marketing minority businesses,'' said Terrence Johnson, Founder of GRT Technologies, LLC, a Las Vegas-based technology consulting firm that recently launched a mobile gaming app on Google Play and App Store.
