Pink is soooo the new green!

The Firm has worked diligently to assist their newest client, the American Cancer Society, with promotion for Breast Cancer Awareness month. As October ends, the relationship is continuing through an upcoming event appropriately titled 'Pink is the New Greene.'

Assistant Firm Director Linzy Smith discusses the event and how members can get involved.


The American Cancer Society (ACS) wants to honor Breast Cancer Awareness month by coloring Greene County pink and hosting the “Pink is the New Greene” event Wednesday, Nov. 7, at 4:30 p.m.  The event is organized by Waynesburg University’s Public Relations Student Society of America PRSSA Firm. 

Although October is the official Breast Cancer Awareness Month, ACS knows the importance of raising awareness every month. The Waynesburg Courthouse steps will premiere this gathering featuring Greene County Commissioners Archie Trader and Pam Snyder, Volunteer Leadership Council Secretary Carol Young, as well as other keynote speakers.

Firm members have showed their dedication by acquiring more than $200 in pledges, decorating Waynesburg University’s campus with an assortment of pink ribbons and working closely with ACS to organize, plan and execute this event.

All members of PRSSA are welcome to assist during the event by setting up decorations prior to commencement, obtaining pledges before and during the event and cleaning up afterwards. Everyone in attendance is asked to wear pink to celebrate the cause. We look forward to working with and seeing everyone on Wednesday!
