Discovery Communications hosted its 6th annual Creating Change event on Thursday, November 5, at the company’s global headquarters in Silver Spring, MD. Discovery employees donated their time and skills to more than 20 nonprofits during a 12-hour period. The pro-bono marathon entailed working on marketing, design and communications projects for organizations in the D.C. metro area.

Concurrently, about 100 nonprofits attended a conference happening at the HQ, in which participants heard from nonprofit leadership in the area, Montgomery County officials and Discovery Communications executives. Topics ranged from creativity in the workplace to communications and marketing strategies. Check out the photo essay of the day below. (Click on the photos for larger versions.)
