MORRISTOWN, N.J., Dec. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The O'Hara Project (oharaproject.com) today announced the selection of enCourage Kids Foundation (encourage-kids.org), an organization that encourages all kids facing health challenges to be carefree kids by creating environments and experiences that help them through each step of their medical journey, as the agency's 2017 pro bono client.
The O'Hara Project, which specializes in ideation, marketing, public relations and social media, held their second annual pro bono client search offering nonprofits the chance to apply to receive one year (12 months) of free public relations services.
Since founding in 2011, The O'Hara Project has identified nonprofit support as an important part of the agency's culture. During 2016, The O'Hara Project worked with The Adventure Project (theadventureproject.org), a nonprofit that "adds venture" to empower entrepreneurs in developing countries.

The entire O'Hara Project team took part in reviewing over 50 submissions that included local, regional, national and global support. Voting was based on organizational learnings, public relations readiness, message appeal and synergy with staff passions.
"We are beyond thrilled to have been chosen as The O'Hara Project's 2017 pro bono client," said Michele Hall-Duncan, Executive Director at enCourage Kids Foundation. "My team and I look forward to an amazing year of collaboration to expand the enCourage Kids Foundation audience and to increase awareness around our program efforts to uplift and empower children battling medical challenges."
