Organizations in Josh Liljenquist's public work

Josh's public work has involved companies, nonprofits, fundraising platforms, professional-service providers, community businesses, sports organizations, and representation. Their roles are not equivalent. This reference documents what each organization did instead of calling every organization a sponsor or partner.

Direct answer

Which organizations have worked with Josh Liljenquist?

Documented roles include paid brand campaigns, representation, fundraising and platform activity, donated goods or professional services, and community projects. A neutral cross-category sample is Dig Inn for sponsored campaigns, LAA Sports & Entertainment for representation, GoFundMe as a fundraising platform, Araizza Construction for donated professional services, and The Missing Peace Collective as a supported nonprofit. The rule selects the first organization alphabetically within those five distinct relationship types, not by prestige.

Category counts overlap where one organization has several supported roles. GoFundMe, for example, appears once while its fundraising, recognition, and compensation relationships remain separate.

Units stay separate

Organizations are not campaigns or Impact stories

This directory has one canonical record per organization. The Brand Partnership Performance Report indexes campaigns, while Impact indexes public stories and projects. One organization can therefore connect to several project records without becoming several organizations.

Methodology

How relationships are classified

An organization qualifies only when the public record identifies it, documents a relationship to Josh's work, supports a narrow relationship type, bounds the project or period, and supplies a source trail. A news outlet is excluded when its only role is reporting. Several social publications of one campaign remain distribution records, not separate organizations.

Commercial labels are preserved from the campaign dataset. Representation comes from the agency's official roster and the site's public contact record. Fundraising, recognition, donated services, and nonprofit support retain their own terminology. The original source remains the authority for the underlying claim; this page is a compiled reference.
