There’s Something Special on the Telly

The prestigious Telly Awards “honor the very best local, regional, and cable television commercials and programs, as well as the finest video and film productions.” And guess who just won four—yes, count ’em, four—Tellies this year for outstanding public service announcements (PSAs)?

Both our Thanksgiving PSA, reminding viewers that the holidays can be murder on turkeys and our too-hot-for-TV “Veggie Love” ad took silver awards in the Nonprofit Campaign category.
