February marks the PRSA East Central District’s month of caring. This week, chapters across the region are highlighting meaningful service projects in their communities! 💙✨

Here in Pittsburgh, our Public Service Committee is proud to support Hope Haven Farm Sanctuary — a nonprofit that rescues, rehabilitates, and provides lifelong care to farm animals who wouldn’t otherwise get a second chance.

Our committee partnered with Hope Haven to strengthen their communications, build branding tools, and expand donor outreach. This work helped amplify the important mission of founder Dr. Karen Phillips, who transformed a neglected six-acre property into a sanctuary full of hope and healing for farm animals in need.

You can read more about the project and Hope Haven's story here: https://rb.gy/hzv0ao

A huge thank you to our Public Service Committee and to the PRSA East Central District for championing a month dedicated to service, compassion, and community impact.
