A great communications campaign is like cultivating a grassroots movement - you want to move people to take an action, make a lifestyle change, or pledge their support. This is how the art of successful external relations happens. It is letting people outside the organization know what you are doing and inviting their awareness and participation.
It is connecting the community to your cause, innovative curriculum, or bold campaign.
