PR Club, the nation’s longest-running organization for communications professionals in New England, today opened submissions for the 54th Annual Bell Ringer Awards that honor outstanding achievements in PR and marketing. The Bell Ringer Awards are open to public relations, marketing and communication professionals based in New England or those who manage(d) initiatives for New England-based clients. Additionally, entries are now open for the three Professional Awards: Striker (young professional), Ringer (mid-level), and the John J. Molloy Crystal Bell for Lifetime Achievement.
PR Club is thrilled to celebrate the excellence of PR, marketing, and communications pros in and around the region as we continue forward in a hybrid workplace. In 2022, entrants will find:
- The return of two COVID-19-related campaign categories, as well as campaigns for unpaid influencer/ambassador work, corporate social responsibility, and fundraising.
- A notable digital Bell Ringer Winner’s Showcase that will feature the excellent work and results our community achieved, and will be available to view online at any time after the awards ceremony.
- Professional awards will again have no entry cost for PR Club members, and discounts for non-members, to make it easier to honor colleagues for their excellence in communications.
“The opening of the Bell Ringer entry period often feels like a step toward new and exciting things. While submitted work is reflective of the previous year, it’s an opportunity to recognize how the industry has evolved and see where it may lead next,” said Amanda Fountain, president of PR Club and digital engagement lead at LEGO Education. “Each year we see how creative, industrious and inspiring the communications professionals in the region are on behalf of themselves and their clients. And, after two years of recognizing this incredible peer work with a virtual ceremony, PR Club is exploring options for how to bring back a safe in-person celebration – so stay tuned.”
