Hello all,

The holiday season is here, and what a wonderful time to reflect on all we’ve accomplished together! As we wrap up 2025, I want to thank each of you for your dedication to FPRA and to our profession. Your passion and commitment make our chapter stronger and create opportunities for learning, networking, and growth that benefit us all.

Thank you for those we walked with Team FPRA SWFL at The Alzheimer’s Walk. The Chapter raised over $500 for those in need. The connection we are building with one another is invaluable!

December is a time for gratitude and giving back, and we have exciting ways to do just that. Merry Mixer – Merry Givemas is a perfect opportunity to support causes that matter and showcase the power of public relations in making a difference.

Looking ahead, we’re planning an incredible lineup of programs for the new year, including professional development sessions, networking events, and volunteer opportunities.

As always, we invite you to get involved. Whether it’s joining a committee, lending your expertise, or simply attending an event, your engagement helps us build a vibrant, supportive community for PR professionals in Southwest Florida.

Thank you for being part of FPRA SWFL. Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a bright start to the new year!
