Rocket Science Marketing & Public Relations

The Rocket Science team loves telling stories about those making an impact on our communities! We can't do it without the support of the media - and today's shout out goes to Don Leach and Andrew Turner of the Daily Pilot for this story on the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Orange Coast supporting families with new school backpacks and back-to-school supplies.

Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Orange Coast are doing Whatever It Takes to ensure the youth and communities they serve are taken care of during these uncertain times. A multi-city backpack and school supply giveaway has impacted more than 500 elementary aged students in the cities of Santa Ana and Orange. Today's third and final distribution provided 200 students with the necessary supplies to begin their virtual school year. Thank you to the Daily Pilot for making it out to speak to Club execs, families and kids!

You go into this sort of ‘never never zone’ in your head that protects you from the horror of what’s happening just so that you can keep functioning and do what you need to do to be helpful, Bruner said. Johanna Bruner has been a nurse for 40 years, and she was on the frontlines of 9/11. Today's pandemic is a parallel reality - and she's now teaching the nurses of tomorrow at California Southern University to stay strong, find hope, and rely on their professional skills to get through it. Our team was able to shine a light on Johanna and our client California Southern University with Spectrum News 1. Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/g4tJxDi.
