Our visit to Alice PR was an especially exciting one for me, as it was my first time ever setting foot inside a PR agency. I had been looking forward to the meeting with them since we had first planned our trip’s itinerary, and it was everything I had hoped for and more.

I gained a plethora of valuable insights from the meeting, but there was one thing that captivated my attention the most. They shared with us a recent campaign they had worked on called “Alice Academy for Activists,” a boot camp for aspiring activists. The ladies of Alice shared that the bootcamp quickly became a passion project for them, and I can see why.

The goal of the bootcamp was to bring together passionate individuals who feel compelled to make a change in their community and the world around them. At the event, they were able to ask questions to a panel of professionals and get a kick-start into making the change they have always wished to see. This especially resonated with me, as I am working on getting a minor in communication and activism. Learning about this campaign showed me that there are several ways to combine my passion for PR and activism.

Furthermore, after speaking to and learning from the ladies at Alice PR, I felt a sense of confidence regarding my future career path. As someone who was undecided when I first began my journey at Temple, I often question if PR was the right decision for me, especially because of how knowledgeable and passionate my peers are. However, my time at Alice PR instilled confidence in me and brought forward my passion for the PR industry, as well as making an impact on my community and all of the organizations I will help serve in the future.

I am so glad that I had the opportunity to learn from a team of such wonderful, intelligent women who are making strides in the world of PR.
