SCHNEIDER ASSOCIATES WINS JPMORGAN CHASE CORPORATE CHALLENGE T-SHIRT CONTEST

Boston, MA – June 2009 – Schneider Associates (SA) is proud to announce it has won the Boston JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge T-Shirt Contest. The T-Shirt Contest is part of the annual JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge Series, a 5-kilometer race held to benefit charitable groups in cities around the world. Sixty-two companies competed in the Boston T-Shirt Contest. The winning T-shirt design was determined through online voting, which was open to the public.

The winning prize is a $500 donation to any charitable organization. SA is pleased to announce it will donate the money to The United Services Organization, Inc (USO). The USO’s selfless work helps to keep American soldiers safe and let them know they are not forgotten. Most recently, SA has collaborated with the USO and the New England Confectionery Company (NECCO) to distribute Red, White & You Sweethearts® candies to U.S. troops in time for the Fourth of July. Schneider Associates is proud to support the USO with this donation.

“We are very excited to take home first place in this fun and creative contest,” said Patrick Richardson, Director of Integrated Marketing at Schneider Associates. “It is a big victory for our company, and a testament to the power of social media.”

The T-Shirt contest marks the launch of SA’s brand new Twitter handle, @schneiderpr. The Twitter handle will provide news, photos and video of all things happening at the agency. SA will also launch a new Web 2.0 site within the next month as they roll out a social media campaign for the company.

The JPMorgan Corporate Challenge Series takes place in 12 cities in six countries on five continents. The Boston race was held on Thursday, June 25, at 7:15 pm. The charitable beneficiary of the Boston race will be Camp Harbor View, a day camp for kids from at-risk neighborhoods and low-income families in the city of Boston.

A team of 15 Schneider Associates employees participated in the race – proudly wearing their winning T-Shirt design. You can view the t-shirt at: http://twitpic.com/7jmb0.
