Care2 Named PR Campaign of the Year Finalist in 15th Annual Stevie Awards for Women in Business
October 5th, 2018 - Today, Care2, the largest social network for good, was named a Finalist in the PR Campaign of the Year on a Shoestring category in the 15th annual Stevie® Awards for Women in Business, and will ultimately be a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Stevie Award winner in the program.
Care2 has been named a finalist following its female-led campaign earlier this year asking Netflix and Matt Smith, co-star of Netflix’s “The Crown,” to donate the difference in his and Claire Foy’s paychecks to the TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund. The campaign was launched in response to an interview with the Producer of “the Crown” that exposed at the show’s “queen,” Foy, was paid less than Smith, her male counterpart.
The Stevie Awards for Women in Business honor women executives, entrepreneurs, employees and the companies they run – worldwide. The Stevie Awards have been hailed as the world’s premier business awards.
More than 1,500 entries were submitted this year for consideration in more than 90 categories, including Executive of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year, Company of the Year, Startup of the Year, Women Helping Women, and Women Run Workplace of the Year. Care2 is a Finalist in the PR Campaign of the Year on a Shoestring category.
Finalists were determined by the average scores of more than 200 business professionals around the world, working on five juries. Their scores will also determine the Gold, Silver, and Bronze Stevie Award placements that will be revealed at the 15thannual awards dinner and presentations in New York.
“In its fifteenth year, the Stevie Awards for Women in Business received a record number of nominations. With the new Women|Future Conference preceding the announcement of winners on November 16, it will be a day to celebrate the achievements of working women around the world,” said Michael Gallagher, founder and president of the Stevie Awards. “We’re looking forward to recognizing the Stevie Award winners next month.”
