Public Communications Inc.

Sharon Dewar, SVP of Conservation, traveled to New York City along with Jessica Wood from Georgia Aquarium this week for the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) Anvil Awards, where PCI received an Award of Excellence in Crisis Communications for “Rescuing Belugas From a War Zone.”

As war intensified in Kharkiv, Ukraine, two beluga whales faced starvation at a besieged dolphinarium. PCI helped lead the crisis communications strategy supporting the international rescue effort led by Oceanografic Valencia, Georgia Aquarium and SeaWorld.

We are honored to see this work recognized nationally and grateful to our client partners for trusting us to help tell a powerful story of compassion, collaboration and care under extraordinary circumstances.
