JC Communications Launches First Annual Pro Bono Sustainability PR Competition

GEARHART, OREGON (February 28, 2022) — JC Communications, an award-winning agency which specializes in public relations for the travel, lifestyle, and food industries, has just announced its First Annual Pro Bono Sustainability PR Competition.

Open to companies who are putting people and planet ahead of profit, the winner of the competition will receive a free one-year public relations campaign providing positioning and brand story development, media materials, and ongoing story pitching and press release distribution.

The competition is open to companies which have a distinctive sustainability component to their product or service and use it as the primary selling point of their brand. The winner will be determined based upon a variety of criteria including the sustainability angle of the product or service, its uniqueness and point of difference from similar products in the marketplace, the product or service's ability to elicit interest from the media based upon the agency's experience, and the winning company's agreement to cooperate in the form of providing high-res photography, sampling for media, etc. Agency reserves the right not to select a winner if we deem there has not been a viable, PR-worthy product or service submitted. Products can be from around the world, but must be for sale easily in the United States as the media campaign will focus only on the US market.

Agency founder, Jane Coloccia, received a Certification in Sustainable Business Strategy from Harvard Business School last year and her exposure to companies who are working hard to create a sustainably minded organization has made her want to donate her agency's time to a company dedicated to a sustainable future.

Entries will be accepted as of February 28, 2022, with a May 1, 2022 entry deadline. The winner will be announced on June 1st with the PR contract to begin on June 15th, 2022 and run for one year.
