For the past few months Jennie Day-Burget has been overseeing the day-to-day management of
Prichard Communications. On June 1st, she was named the new Managing Director. This new position will entail overseeing business growth, operations, management, staffing and client services.
“I will focus on continuing to grow our agency ‘s business and serve long-term clients,” said Jennie Day-Burget.
Prichard has been providing communications to social changemakers across the United States since 2007. Their goal is to help their clients achieve their strategic communications and marketing goals.
One notable development that has occurred within the company is the launch of a new microsite that will support their dinner salon series, The Portland Ten. This is a networking event in which Team Prichard meets with the community’s top ten social changemakers for dinner, drinks and smart conversation.
The Prichard team also worked around the clock in order to ensure that last month’s Changemaker’s Night was a success. This event brought together over 300 philanthropists, social innovators and business leaders for an evening that included three speakers – international, national and local changemakers.
