Farmington, Conn. (July 6, 2011) – Co-Communications, Inc., a full-service public relations and marketing agency, was recognized with two Gold Mercury Awards by the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) at the Connecticut Valley, Southern Connecticut, and Westchester/Fairfield Chapters’ Annual Mercury Awards celebration at Fantasia in North Haven on June 23rd.
Co-Communications received Gold Mercury Awards for its work on behalf of 2-1-1 Child Care and the Connecticut Historical Society.
For 2-1-1 Child Care, a free, multilingual resource that helps families across Connecticut find child care arrangements to best meet their needs, Co-Communications received Gold in Not-for-Profit Community Relations. In 2010, Co-Communications executed a strategic campaign on behalf of the non-profit that increased awareness of its new interactive online support functionality and summer camp placement resources while demonstrating the impact Connecticut’s economy was having on the child care industry and providing parents with tips and resources to navigate the changed landscape.
Co-Communications also received a Gold Mercury Award in Not-for-Profit Reputation/Brand Management for its work on behalf of the Connecticut Historical Society. Established in 1825, the Connecticut Historical Society (CHS) is a non-profit museum, library, and education center and one of the oldest historical societies in the nation. In 2010, Co-Communications developed an ongoing campaign that highlighted the programs and exhibits that make CHS an indispensable resource for connecting the present with the past and inspiring a love of history among this and future generations.
“We are honored to have our work recognized by our peers and to be in the company of so many outstanding PR pros and campaigns,” said Jessica Lyon, Vice President, Co-Communications. “Thank you to PRSA for this recognition.”
