The Harris Agency, a public relations firm based in Boonton, NJ, has announced that it is now accepting applications for the 2027 edition of THA Impact, its pro bono communications grant program. The initiative is designed to help a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit broaden its reach and amplify its mission through strategic communications support.
Selected organizations will receive up to $25,000 in pro bono public relations services for a 2027 project or campaign. The support includes content development, media relations, media training, event support, social media engagement, and community outreach. The application window is open through October 9, and the chosen nonprofit will be announced in December.
Nonprofits interested in applying can do so through the THA Impact website. This grant represents a significant opportunity for nonprofits to access professional communications expertise that might otherwise be unaffordable, potentially enhancing their visibility and impact.
The Harris Agency, founded in 2017, serves a range of corporate and nonprofit clients, focusing on B2B and technology sectors. Its team brings decades of experience in managing reputation and issues for companies like IBM, Verizon, Calix, Synchrony, and PSEG. The agency's commitment to pro bono work through THA Impact underscores its dedication to giving back to the community and supporting causes that align with its values.
For nonprofits, the implications are substantial. With limited budgets, many organizations struggle to gain media attention and effectively communicate their message. This grant could be a game-changer for a nonprofit seeking to launch a new initiative, raise awareness for a critical issue, or expand its donor base.
The application process is straightforward, but nonprofits are encouraged to apply early to ensure sufficient time to prepare a compelling proposal. The Harris Agency will evaluate applications based on the potential impact of the proposed project and the organization's need for communications support.
This announcement comes at a time when nonprofits are facing increasing challenges in standing out in a crowded digital landscape. The THA Impact program offers a unique chance for one lucky organization to receive professional guidance and resources that could significantly boost its reach and effectiveness.
