Our Past Experience Working with Clients

Hofstra's PRSSA chapter has been working with on and off campus clients for years. As a chapter we find hands on experience with clients to be invaluable and vital to our growth as young professionals. We recently worked with the Nassau County Dental Society to help promote their annual event "Give Kids A Smile". "Give Kids A Smile" calls attention to under served children in Nassau County in the area of dental health care. On this day hundreds of Long Island dentists provided free dental exams and education to children ages 4 to 7. Our PRSSA chapter participated in the event through researching local media contacts and writing press materials to get media coverage for "Give Kids A Smile". Below are a few photos from the event which took place on Friday, February 1st, 2008.











This semester PRSSA is working with the Pet Safe Coalition of Nassau County. We are all very eager to work with this organization and help them improve some of their current Public Relations efforts. Stay tuned with future updates of our involvement with Pet Safe!

Our experiences with past clients will help shape PRestige, as we learn from our successes and areas that need to be improved upon. We are all looking forward to our future as a PRSSA agency!

PRestige and PRSSA's New Frontier

This is an exciting time for some of us here at Hofstra involved in our University's chapter of PRSSA. This blog is one of our first steps toward developing a running public relations agency. As you may already have noticed, we are calling ourselves PRestige Agency. Members of PRSSA have been meeting, brainstorming, and tapping into our creative minds to help create a strategy to develop an agency within our chapter of PRSSA. We are starting at the bottom and working hard through this current semester, in order to have PRestige Agency fully staffed and operating for the Fall semester of 2008.
As we develop the foundation for our agency, you will see posts from members working on the agency development, pictures from events, and everything else in between. This is a thrilling time for all of us creating this agency. Keep your eye out for all of our trials, tribulations, and hopefully SUCCESS in the coming weeks and months!
