Media Partners Wins Three Inspire Awards from NCPRSA

RALEIGH, NC, May 09, 2013 (Press-News.org) Media Partners, Incorporated (MPI) has received three Inspire Awards for excellence from the North Carolina Public Relations Society of America. The awards were presented last week at a banquet, emceed by Tamara Gibbs of ABC11-WTVD at the Morehead Planetarium in Chapel Hill.

MPI received bronze awards for two media relations campaigns. The first award recognized Central Carolina Hospital in Sanford, N.C., and a project called "Operation Special Delivery." The effort highlighted the hospital's birth center and the growing number of Skype deliveries resulting from long military deployments.

Two other awards recognized the Eight Eighties/Wounded Warrior Team of Kinston, N.C., and a project called "What it Means to be Rebuilt in America." Featuring a group of war time veterans, all over 80 years old, the project promoted efforts to rebuild America by creating jobs and supporting wounded service men and women returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

"MPI's PR capability is growing, and it's a great honor for our team and our clients to receive these awards," said Nancy Bono, partner at MPI. "The work we do on behalf of our clients is certainly reward enough but this validates what we all believe. Solid client and agency partnerships produce successful results."

North Carolina's Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America honors communications programs that have achieved great success and inspired others in North Carolina and beyond. The awards recognized entries for outstanding excellence in public relations for the calendar year 2012.

"We have a great team and we have a lot of fun working on these kinds of projects. But we always work strategically to tie everything we do back to client objectives," said Sal Conino partner at MPI. "I think that really comes through in the final results."
