Hi all! I was hoping to start a thread where folks could share previous examples of press releases they’ve sent out. Bonus if you can include any press that was distributed as a result! Thanks @MNA_Kate and @Leandra_MNA for sharing your expertise last week! ---

Here’s one I wrote a while back that was picked up by the Missoulian. [Spring in his step: UM student recognized with volunteer award](https://missoulian.com/news/local/spring-in-his-step-um-student-recognized-with-volunteer-award/article_d7c9d4cd-e49d-5a2e-a099-55a0d3ad5c79.html) Here’s a recent one that was picked up by NBC.

Here’s another one I wrote at Homeword that wasn’t picked up. [https://homeword.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/072622-homeword-requests-support.pdf](https://homeword.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/072622-homeword-requests-support.pdf) I’m sure we didn’t get the information out there early enough. ---
