Blueprint recognized with TWO Pollie Awards!

Friends and Colleagues,

I wanted to let you know Blueprint Public Affairs was recognized with two Pollie Awards from the American Association of Political Consultants! 2021 is the third straight year that Blueprint was highlighted by the AAPC, and the first time our team was recognized with a Gold.

Blueprint received the Regional Gold: Best Direct Mail Fundraising Campaign (under $1 million) for our direct mail fundraising efforts with the Planned Parenthood Association of Utah (PPAU) during 2020. The pandemic meant the need for healthcare services, particularly for marginalized communities, was greater than ever. The increased need came after years of federal funding cuts and were made more urgent by the passing of RBG. Blueprint is proud to be part of their team and to help PPAU weather the storm of the Trump years, the pandemic, and end up stronger than ever before. You can view the direct mail entries here.

FundHero (www.fundhero.io), a donor management app developed by Matt Lyon, Chris Fowles, and David Herzog, was recognized with the Silver Award: Best Fundraising Technology. Fresh off our 2019 beta test, just under 400 candidates and organizations used the app to raise nearly $3.17 million online. FundHero is tailored to nonprofits and political campaigns raising between $10,000 and $1 million annually. Basic plans are free to use, with premium plans beginning at $9/month.

Thank you to our whole team, including Valerie Stormont, Thom DeSirant, Mackenzie Symes and Clint Simkins, the team at Planned Parenthood Association of Utah, and our friends at Niftic.Agency for making last year a success.

Sincerely,

Matt Lyon
