Impact PR Doubles Its Commitment to Future PR Leaders

Impact PR & Communications, a leading public relations agency based in New York’s Hudson Valley with a roster of clients across the country, is doubling its impact on the next generation of public relations professionals. For the second year in a row, the agency made a donation to the Marist University Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA), doubling its support to cover the membership fees for 20 students this school year. This investment gives aspiring communicators the tools and opportunities to sharpen their skills, expand their network and gain hands-on, real-world experience.

PRSSA is more than a student organization – it’s a gateway to the industry. Through membership, mentorship, internships, professional networking and more, the chapter equips students with the knowledge and experience they need to thrive. By supporting Marist’s PRSSA chapter, Impact PR & Communications is helping students make meaningful connections and prepare them to make an impact of their own.
