40 Prado Homeless Services Center Fundraising Campaign (Campaign of the Year) BCA’s successful efforts to help raise community support and over the five million needed for a new homeless shelter in San Luis Obispo included donated newspaper, TV and radio ads, a long form video, social media campaign, speaker presentations and other elements that culminated in a well-attended groundbreaking ceremony.
Eagle Ranch Conservation (Special Events for Budgets Under $5,000) BCA’s promotion announcing the permanent protection of more than 3,000 acres of land included a press release, photos and videos at an event that included recognition for the late Roger Lyon, a leading local conservationist.
“We are especially proud because these campaigns all supported the community we live in,” said BCA’s President and CEO Maggie Cox. “And the campaigns showed our wide range of offerings – from the written word and social media to video, photography and more.”
