Be aware Kansas City: 350 advertising agency folks will be loose on the streets tomorrow!
Actually, they'll be busy helping three local nonprofits: Harvestors, the Don Bosco Centers, the Front Porch Alliance.
It's VML's annual Foundation Day, so they will close their doors and give all of the employees the day to help in the community. VML is a full-service digital marketing agency. As you may know, the agency industry has felt the brunt of low consumer confidence lately. Closing its doors for a day takes guts.
Kudos to VML and its clients for keeping up a tradition, especially in the midst of the recession when help is desperately needed.
Closing shop for a day to contribute to the community: now that takes guts!
