Former Indianapolis Colt Marlin Jackson has added a new external relations consultant, Chelsea S. Reed, to the staff of his nonprofit, the Fight for Life Foundation (FFLF).
FFLF helps serve underserved youth by collaborating with educators to provide support through learning programs. Reed’s addition marks the second staffer added to the team this year.
Reed works as an independent marketing and strategy consultant with nearly 20 years of experience. Her background is in writing, media coaching, strategic communications, brand development and advertising. She has collaborated with organizations across the city such as Zion Hope Church, Indiana Black Expo Inc., HealthNet Inc. and Black Coaches & Administrators Association.
In her new role, Reed will work alongside the FFLF team to increase visibility, help people understand the organization’s mission, shed light on barriers in education and create meaningful solutions.
“We’re in a season of growth, and I am grateful,” Jackson said in a press release. “I’ve been doing this work in some way for nearly 17 years since 2007. There are countless stories of impact and even more reasons why we — Fight for Life Foundation — are passionate about equipping students to fight for quality in life. This work takes community partners, educators, and a team. It also takes someone like Chelsea, who is skilled at bringing compelling stories to life in a variety of genuine ways.”
