Business for Good SEPTEMBER 2017 — AUGUST 2019
Business for Good SEPTEMBER 2017 — AUGUST 2019 From helping Ottawa students learn about Canada’s history and what reconciliation means to them, to fundraising concerts for Girls+ Rock Ottawa, to supporting health innovation and driving business strategy for a charity, MediaStyle works to reinvest in the communities that invest in us. 1 SUPPORT: By the Numbers ORGANIZATIONS 19+ HOURS OF WORK 960 IN CASH DONATION $2,650 BURSARIES $15,000 IN PRO BONO WORK $130,000 2 Highlights include... • A CONCERT HELD IN THE COMMONS • TWO DONATIONS TO EMPOWER LOCAL YOUTH • THREE ACTS OF SUPPORT FOR FUTURE COMMUNICATORS • FOUR PORTRAITS OF COMMUNITY LEADERS AND CHANGEMAKERS TEN ACTS OF TENACITY: This past year, MediaStyle celebrated ten years as a progressive public affairs firm. We’ve come a long way from the media training and style consulting firm from which we began. Our beginnings were as a scrappy startup; now we inhabit two floors in a heritage building, have a team of ten working on some really exciting and important files, and we work every day knowing we are helping make the world better. We feel so grateful to have been able to spend the past ten years partnering with like-minded organizations to create positive change on issues that matter to Canadians. Ten years felt like an important milestone to us, so we wanted to celebrate. The Ten Acts of Tenacity campaign was a series of ten actions that gave thanks to the Ottawa community by supporting local organizations, hosting events, honouring community changemakers, and providing donations to organizations that deserve support. -
