A Night at the Bell Ringers
This week, The Publicity Club of New England honored more than 150 public relations and communications professionals for their achievements at the 40th annual Bell Ringer Awards. The Bell Ringer Awards recognize excellence in communications and public relations work in every field and industry, and across all media—print, broadcast and online. More than 400 of New England's top PR professionals gathered at Boston’s Westin Waterfront Hotel to celebrate the accomplishments we have made over the past year.
Whether helping immigrants reach a better life through Western Union's efforts OR inviting the world to meet “Cliff” the triceratops residing at the Museum of Science, the night was filled with one impressive campaign after another. As I sat at the event hearing about all of the amazing work from companies throughout New England, I felt inspired at the collective impact that we truly have had.
It’s important to remember that we as PR practitioners truly have the ability to influence the way people and businesses think and act. In fact, at a recent Pub Club panel comprised of eight lifestyle editors from throughout the Greater Boston Area, it was confirmed that 75 percent of their story ideas and content come directly from our community.
Congratulations to all entrants and winners, and thank you for continuing to inspire and push us to continue the amazing work and reach new heights in the communications and public relations field!
-- Hilary Blowers, Account Supervisor

Cone Enjoys a Successful Awards Season
We’ve always set the highest standards for our performance and take pride in delivering exceptional work. The greatest honor we can receive is when our clients are satisfied with a job well done. But, we can’t help but be flattered when our peers recognize our hard work, too. Cone has enjoyed many successful awards seasons, and this year is no different. Whether for inspiring cause branding work or attention-grabbing marketing and PR, our work, and ultimately that of our clients, has brought us much recognition.
The season started off on a high note at the PR News CSR Awards, where Western Union was honored for its work in stakeholder engagement with its Our World, Our Family program, which it partnered with Cone to create. Western Union continues to garner a lot of praise for its work with migrants across the world, including an award from the Center Encouraging Corporate Philanthropy, who presented it with its Excellence Award in Corporate Philanthropy, a very prestigious honor in international corporate philanthropy.
Cone had an even bigger showing at the Cause Marketing Forum Awards with Timberland receiving the evening’s highest honor, a Cause Marketing Golden Halo, for its commitment to making a difference in its communities. Cone then swept the Best Health Campaign category with The American Heart Association’s (AHA) Start! program winning the Golden Halo and Jiffy Lube International taking a Silver Halo for its Maintenance Partners for Life.
The awards kept coming during the Publicity Club of New England Bell Ringer Awards ceremony as Western Union won the Bell Ringer for best community relations campaign, the AHA won for its Start! Heart Walk special event and Jockey International grabbed a Bell Ringer for best television news placement. Not to be outdone, ALPO, Ben & Jerry’s and T-Mobile USA each earned Merits.
A much-deserved congratulations goes out to all!
