Today’s PR Lesson: Don’t be that guy. 🎩

Steal a kid’s hat or canoodle with the head of HR → you go viral for all the wrong reasons. CEO's, with great power comes...great potential for internet shaming. 👀

We're so excited to share this story on ABC Action News - WFTS - Tampa Bay from the 1Voice Foundation Summer Camp for children (and their siblings) battling cancer.

This inspiring segment aired all across Florida and in 14 other states across the U.S. It's a wonderful example of the impact a great story can have on amplifying the voice of an organization.

We're honored to work with the 1Voice Foundation in sharing their mission to support families battling pediatric cancer. This summer camp is just one of the dozens of incredible programs provided to the families 🎗️

This team helped save 60 Children from human trafficking, along with the US Marshals Office, which is calling this the largest and most successful missing child recovery mission in its history.
