The ASPCA's Humane Awards Luncheon recognizes individuals who have worked on behalf of animal welfare as well as animals who have engaged in acts of heroism each year. Following a nationwide call to the public for nominations, an ASPCA-appointed committee reviews entries and selects winners in specific categories such as: ASPCA Dog of the Year; ASPCA Cat of the Year; ASPCA Kid of the Year; ASPCA Presidential Service Award; ASPCA Firefighter of the Year; ASPCA Law Enforcement Officer of the Year. The 2008 luncheon was hosted by Chuck Scarborough in NYC's Rainbow Room.
PTA conducted a selected radio campaign involving participation of over 25 regional AAA spokespersons in targeted markets across the country.

PTA, DC has been working with Kiron Skinner for more than a year on media relations strategy and consultation. We have presented Kiron as a political expert, strategist and thought leader to nationwide broadcast media. Our team has taken Kiron's thoughts and made them appealing to mainstream and targeted media. We have helped Kiron to gain media recognition and positive media attention for her ideas. We coordinated media for Kiron throughout the 2008 Presidential election and on foreign affairs topics including Iran, North Korea, Iraq and Afghanistan.
PTA was contracted directly by Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Dave Winfield to assist Scribner with their publicity campaign for the book. PTA was tasked to lead local touring efforts in five markets, support Scribner's national media outreach, and conduct a nationwide sports radio campaign. In addition to promoting the book, Mr. Winfield was also interested in generating interest for his local performances of the Baseball Music Project's presentations.
