Girls and Boys Town
Girls and Boys Town hired Character Matters to develop a character to help bring their communication programs to a new level. In addition to creating a “cast” of characters, Character Matters has remained a vital part of the Girls and Boys Town marketing team and is working on Public Service Announcements, as well as other programs to introduce the characters.
"I really wanted to be creatively different from other nonprofits in telling the contemporary story of Girls and Boys Town, the Original Father Flanagan Boy's Home. After meeting Tom Wilson and Jeanette Smith, I was intrigued by the Character Matters approach and what it could potentially do for us. They have far exceeded my expectations. They are not only very creative but have shown us many practical ways to present this to our target audience. It has been and continues to be a great partnership!"
