A new approach to media applications

CMG is a collective effort of individuals from a variety of professional backgrounds, who all share the same vision to benefit the lives of others. Our backgrounds include careers in media production, graphic design, marketing, medical, business management and education.

New methods... new thinking... extraordinary results

While our body of work includes everythinng from website creation to app development, interactive learning content to child safety, our core objectives are always at the center of everything we do.

To make a lasting impact

In every project we agree to undertake, we strive to positively change the lives of those whom we come in contact with and to establish a level of excellence we hope others will strive to acheive.

To seek a cause greater than self

Daniel Burnham, architect (1864-1912), said it best, “Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency. Remember that our sons and grandsons are going to do things that would stagger us. Let your watchword be order and your beacon beauty. Think big.”

It all started with a dream

CMG's FireFacts division was established in 2007. Its primary focus is the developement of educational software directed towards home and wildfire safety. Our first product, the FireFacts Fire Safety Learning CD, was introduced to the market in October 2008 and quickly became the #1 educational tool used throughout the US, with nearly 2 million copies distributed nationwide to date.

  "Making is possible to put a firefighter in every classroom!"

  Our newest program makes it possible to effectively reach every student with the fire safety message. Teachers love the program's ability to easily fit within their normal classroom schedule. Fire departments love the ability to reduce time and cost, while extending their efforts into a 5-day comprehensive lesson plan.

  Includes stories/lesson plans, video content and activities for each day. Recommended for grades K-4th.

Putting the web to work for us

CMG's web presence continues to expand as we add new sites, and we continue to look for new ways to harness the internet's power to educate, engage, and equip.

CMG's suite of educational sites includes:

• FireFacts- Originally developed as a supliment to the Fire Safety Learning CD, and to give students an online venue to learn fire safety in a fun engaging manner. Recently, the site has experienced a major "renovation," with the children's content relocated to the new "Kid's Zone" located at FireSafeKids.org, and the site redesigned as a resource for parents and educators.
• Fire Safe Kids- The funnest place on the internet to learn fire safety! Complete with coloring pages, activities and games all designed to reinforce the fire safety message. Each month, thousands of children from all over the world vistit this site.
• Ask a Firefighter- Designed to give kids (young and old) the ability to ask fire related questions and have them answered by real firefighters. The oldest "youngster" to ask a question on this site is 78 years young, proving you're never too old to be a kid!

Partnering with success

A key factor to CMG's success is the incredible opportunities we've had to work with those who truly understand the importance of "doing the right thing." Over the past few years, CMG has had the privilege to partner with some of the most well-respected companies, agencies and organizations.
