Greenville, North Carolina - Red Shark Digital, steadfast to its commitment to reaching NC marketing agency excellence, is unveiling an exciting partnership with Greenville United Football Club (GUFC), a semi-professional soccer team based in Greenville. As both organizations commit to supporting our local community and participating in annual engagement initiatives, the new collaboration will highlight healthy competition and promote unity among Pitt County residents and businesses.

Over the years, Red Shark Digital and GUFC have undertaken various initiatives to strengthen community ties and support local causes.

In the summer of 2022, Greenville United Football Club partnered with several local non-profit organizations to provide free soccer camps for children aged 5 to 12. After further collaborations with regional parks and recreation departments, GUFC enacted affordable soccer camps for over 250 children across Eastern NC year-round. The club remains dedicated to positively influencing local youth through soccer.

“We are working hard to make Greenville United FC an important part of Greenville, Pitt County, and the surrounding region.  Soccer is a universal language between cultures around the world and we want to make sure that everyone has an opportunity to come together, united, to enjoy soccer at a high level.  As a team still starting up, our partnership with Red Shark Digital will help us reach audiences that otherwise would not know about our games.  Red Shark Digital’s high quality and focused marketing will highlight the Greenville United FC experience and point future Buck fans our way.  We are excited for this partnership and how we both can grow into the future.” – Daniel Van Liere, Chairman, Greenville United FC.

The partnership between Red Shark Digital and GUFC signifies a shared pursuit of growth and pushing past boundaries that stand in the way of excellence. As Greenville United builds its fanbase with a recent inclusion in the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL), Red Shark Digital continues delivering award-winning NC digital marketing agency services to local businesses.

Red Shark Digital provides monetary donations and in-kind services to several local fundraising organizations across Greenville. Their contributions include sponsorship for local little league and recreational league ball teams, award-level services within ECU’s Pirate Entrepreneurship Challenge, conducting in-classroom presentations for rising juniors and seniors through the Greenville Chamber of Commerce’s Grow Local initiative, and close ties and services for Riley’s Army.

One of Red Shark Digital’s core values is to be an agency that strives to give back. Supporting local causes is one way the agency achieves this. Through their new partnership, GUFU and Red Shark Digital will extend their reach into larger community development opportunities.

“Greenville is our home; in a town where most would claim there is very little to do, Greenville United has brought an exciting activity the entire community can enjoy right here in our backyard,” said Spencer Bunting, CEO of Red Shark Digital. “We are looking forward to our work together with Greenville United and thankful for the opportunity to partner alongside yet another local organization committed to the betterment of the community at large.”

In 2023, Red Shark Digital partnered with the American Heart Association of Eastern NC to assist in their annual Heart Walk campaign, serving as a team captain and Silver Sponsor. Before closing for their holiday break, the agency prepared bagged lunches for residents at Greenville's local homeless shelter, Community Crossroads Center.

Red Shark Digital also continues to partner with The Ronald McDonald House of Eastern NC, supporting their fundraising campaigns and initiatives through in-kind website maintenance, hosting, photography, video production, and digital advertising services.

Together, Red Shark Digital and Greenville United Football Club plan to launch joint initiatives to expand their reach across Eastern NC and benefit the soccer team and the agency. With philanthropy rooted in each organization's core values, this new chapter aims to enhance community morale, create poignant memories, and help the city of Greenville grow alongside them.
