  • This Friday: Kindness Spread on a Mass Scale Around Guelph
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE This Friday: Kindness spread on a mass scale around Guelph “How do we change the world? One random act of kindness at a time” – Morgan Freeman Schools, adults, community groups, organizations of all shapes and sizes will be demonstrating what kindness means to them this Friday November 6th throughout the Guelph community. If you find yourself on the streets of Guelph this Friday, you will no doubt encounter a kindness act in the making. From The Letter M’s free breakfast table downtown, to a free Guelph Mercury newspaper when you ride the bus, to free hugs and hot chocolate at The University of Guelph. You may be strolling along Cork Street and help yourself to a lollipop because kindness truly is sweet. Kindness may take the form of a coffee paid for you by a stranger. You may see kindness in the appreciation from a co-worker. Maybe a door will be held open for you; you may receive a phone call from an old friend. Perhaps you will notice oversized sticky notes on the street corner with kindness quotes that encourage you to act out in kindness toward someone else. If you were a fly on the wall in one of our schools, you would see students exchanging “pay it forward” kindness cards, collecting food for donation, reading books about kindness, listen to morning announcements that encourage students to include kindness in their day, and see lesson plans based around the kindness character trait. Stay tuned on social media all day Friday, where the community will be “caught in the act of kindness” and where we will be sharing kindness stories through images, video, and inspiring words – and we’ll continue to share the kindness throughout the month of November.

  • Media Report: Toronto Jewish Film Festival 2018 Overview
    Media Report: Toronto Jewish Film Festival 2018 Overview Touchwood PR initiated an effective media campaign, which generated extensive coverage in television, print, radio and online media. We were successful in achieving the objectives set at the start of the campaign by generating media coverage and broadening public and media awareness of the Festival. This was done through a strategic media outreach plan and capitalizing on availability of talent, primarily Hal Linden and Ryan Ochoa, which garnered substantial media interest for the Festival. Highlights of the campaign include: ● Secured media coverage in outlets including Toronto Star, Breakfast Television, CP24 Breakfast, Canadian Jewish News, CTV Your Morning, ET Canada’s Facebook Live, Boom 97.3, Sirius XM, Zoomer, among others. ● Secured interviews for Hal Linden and Ryan Ochoa with eight major outlets. Their availability and participation in media interviews raised overall awareness for Festival and demonstrated the value in bringing high-profile talent to the Festival. In addition, knowing their availability months before the Festival was beneficial in allowing us to secure interviews. The press days went smoothly and The Samuel Project team were a delight to work with. ● Secured interviews for TJFF spokespeople in Zoomer Radio/Classical 96.3 and CBC Radio-Canada. ● Secured review coverage for TJFF titles in outlets including NOW Magazine, The Globe and Mail, CIUT 89.5 FM, Fairchild Radio, In The Seats, and Reel Roundup, among others. ● Successfully arranged ticket giveaways with online and radio outlets for films that required an extra support. These outlets promoted the Festival on their social media platforms, raising awareness for the screenings.
