Pro Bono Day: April 7

Pro Bono Day is Friday, April 7, at Baldwin-Wallace University.

Nonprofits benefit from PR to boost their services, participation, and fundraising, but limited dollars prevent many of them from hiring a PR team. On PRSA Cleveland's Pro Bono Day, they can find support for their missions with free insight from Northeast Ohio PR professionals.

Do you want to help a Northeast Ohio nonprofit? PR pros volunteer their time to help a nonprofit's unique PR challenge in a 30-minute consultation or host roundtables discussing solutions to common PR challenges with several nonprofits. To sign up, c omplete this short form ( linked here ).

NOTE: Please sign up ASAP to ensure there are enough volunteers to match interested nonprofits. Appointment schedules will be distributed in mid- to late-March.

Know a Nonprofit Seeking Assistance?

Help us spread the word about Pro Bono Day to let Northeast Ohio nonprofits know about the opportunity. We ask nonprofits to express their interest in free communications help by completing this short form ( linked here).

For more information or to sign up a group or team of volunteers, contact event chair Ann Gynn .
