Nonprofit Partners with PR Company and Gains International Attention

December 9, 2009 by prgrants in PR Grant Program News

Special EquestriansWARRINGTON, Pa., Dec. 9, 2009 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Last year Special Equestrians was one of 10 nonprofits chosen from nearly 600 applicants to receive part of $25,000 in PR service grants. “We’ve always taken corporate social responsibility very seriously, and it gives all of us here a warm and fuzzy feeling to do what little we can to give something back to worthwhile causes,” said Neotrope CEO and co-founder, Christopher L. Simmons. “We learned many years ago that it was better to donate our expertise than simply writing checks, as it provided more real support for the non-profit organization.”

“We have appeared in local print and Websites such as Business Week, and Therapy Times, and even Live Strong — but without a doubt the biggest thrill has been seeing our name published in ‘Frommer’s Guide to 500 Places Where You Can Make a Difference,'” said Tammy Westney, Executive Director of Special Equestrians. “We had just sent out a press release with Neotrope about volunteers doing projects at our agency during Earth Week, when we received a call from Frommer’s Guides asking if we would like to be listed. I said we would be thrilled, and we are. Neotrope has done more to raise our profile than we could have ever imagined, and we thoroughly enjoyed working with them!”
