M&C Saatchi do their bit for flood relief
M&C Saatchi have raised $18,000 for the Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal.
The announcement:
Sydney 27 January 2011 – M&C Saatchi raised $18,000 for flood relief from a party it held on its rooftop on Tuesday night.
Agency staff “got their Aussie” on for the Australia Day eve fundraiser that featured an Aussie BBQ, ANZAC biscuits, green and gold deserts and drinks, all supplied by M&C Saatchi for a gold coin donation.
Is it just me or does anyone else find M&C creating a press release about this in poor taste?
Well done Saatchi’s, give yourself a pat on the back. Oh wait, you did….
It could be taken the wrong way I suppose but likewise it’s a rallying cry to other companies to do the same/similar thing. I thought it was tastefully done.
This is why the idea of a levy pisses me off – no mention of the floods in bloody Carnarvon, WESTERN AUSTRALIA, was there? Sheez…
