PORTSMOUTH, N.H., Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Calypso Communications, one of the only truly integrated, full-service public relations, marketing, and graphic design firms in Northern New England, has renewed its leadership sponsorship of Leadership Seacoast, a non-profit organization that develops informed and active community leaders, for the 2013 program year beginning in January.
"Calypso has been a long-time sponsor of Leadership Seacoast—from in-kind services to monetary donations," said Jennifer Wheeler, executive director of Leadership Seacoast. "The firm's support allows us to provide content-rich programming to our members so that they can discover the connections among the many issues facing our region."
In December, Leadership Seacoast completed its annual enrollment process. The organization received a record number of applicants for the 2013 class; in comparison to last year, the applicant pool increased by 35 percent—the most in the program's 25-year history.
After an objective and extensive review of all candidates, the Leadership Seacoast Board of Directors admitted 36 individuals, each of whom will bring a unique set of skills to the interactive program. The class of 2013 kicks off its program year on January 9, 2013 with its annual day-long retreat at the Browne Center for Innovative Learning in Durham, New Hampshire.
"We're so pleased to continue our sponsorship of Leadership Seacoast," said Angela Carter, senior vice president and chief operating officer for Calypso. "Calypso is proud to offer support and services to non-profit organizations, like Leadership Seacoast, that make a difference in our community."
