Cracking the code to 
story-driven impact reports.

After nearly 30 years of connecting teens with technology, the Best Buy Foundation was ready to tell its own story—distinct from Best Buy corporate, yet just as innovative and inspiring. JK partnered with them to capture that purpose, amplify their impact, and share it through their first stand-alone annual report.

Defining a story worth believing in.

Key people interviews revealed the story behind the stats: the Foundation isn’t just funding programs—it’s fueling potential. The unifying idea, “Building Brighter Futures,” became the heartbeat of their narrative, inspiring messaging that spotlights real teens, real progress, and real possibility.

Building brighter futures

A unifying theme that celebrates youth, creativity, and tech empowerment.

A story with heart

Turning data and detail into an inspiring narrative of progress and potential.

Bringing purpose to the page.

We wove that theme through every design element—pairing candid photography, authentic quotes, and bold visuals with a clean, confident layout to deliver a digital-ready annual report as vibrant and future-focused as the youth it celebrates.

A platform to grow

Foundation storytelling now built to evolve alongside its mission.

Inspiring belief—and generosity.

The Foundation’s story took center stage at the annual Charity Classic—sparking connection, generosity, and pride. The evening raised a record-breaking $7.7 million, a testament to the power of storytelling that makes people believe in what’s possible.

see what’s possible.
