Magazine ad people being asked to support National Magazine Awards
Brian Stendel of Keystone Media Inc. is appealing to members of the magazine advertising community to help sponsor a National Magazines Awards category, similar to the pitch that Kim Pittaway did to the "creators" and I did to past presidents. Here's what he says:
The National Magazine Awards could use our help right now. I'm inviting the magazine reps of Canada to toss a little cash in the hat for the cause. It's tax deductible and frankly we can use the brownie points.If you're in the advertising community, follow magazines, wish the NMA's well, you can help by e-mailing Brian a pledge to brian[at]keystonemedia[dot]ca.
The goal is $1,500 and when we reach it, a 2009 National Magazine Award will be sponsored by the Magazine Advertising Representatives of Canada...I've gotten the ball rolling with the first $100 so we are already 6.7% to budget. All donations are welcome and $20 or more gets you a tax receipt. Sure commissions are down in this depression but brother, we can spare a dime, can't we? Spread the word! It's what we're good at. For a running total, check my Twitter (twitter.com/bstendel).

Such support for our industry's creators is amazing. Brian, thank you. And thank you in advance to all who support his initiative, and by extension the NMAF's efforts to reward and recognize Canada's top illustrators, photographers, writers, editors and art directors.
