How the Bad Can Bring Out the Good
Middle Tennessee continues to reel in the aftermath of last week’s floods now being described as the worst non-hurricane natural disaster in U.S. history. That’s bad. As soon as they could, volunteers showed up in droves to help neighbors and complete strangers affected by the floods. That’s good. And being Music City USA, there’s not a celebrity in town who hasn’t contributed in some way to flood relief efforts. That’s also good. But for comedian Jerry Seinfeld, who booked a gig in Nashville months ago, to give all proceeds from his show this weekend show to the recovery effort - well that’s just indescribably good! Three virtual Cups of Joe to Jerry Seinfeld for doing something really good for thousands of people going through something really bad.
The virtual Cup of Joe Award from EveryDayPR spotlights our pick of the week for a public relations performance – good, bad or ugly. If you’d like to make a nomination, contact shart@hartpr.com or www.Twitter.com/susanhartpr.
