How St.Jude Gained Global Exposure With Its Covid-19 PR Efforts

Like other organizations in America the nationally renown St.Jude Children's Research Hospital had to hit the brakes to decide how to best develop its communications plan to provide useful information to its audiences. Being a research hospital that caters children their team decided upon a coloring book. With this book kids could color the images while the parents read to them a story about how they were being protected by the St. Jude staff.
So successful was the coloring book locally that it received coverage in USA TODAY.  That exposure was picked up by foreign news organizations. To ride this wave of exposure Marvin Stockwell, the St.Jude Director of Media Relations converted the book to a digital format AND had it translated into numerous foreign languages.  Families around the world downloaded the book and benefited from the generosity.  Listen to Marvin articulate this and more on his team's successful efforts.
