NEW YORK, Oct. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The TASC Group (http://www.thetascgroup.com) has been selected as a Shorty Social Good Awards Finalist for our work with Susan Bro and the Heather Heyer Foundation.

TASC helped Susan Bro establish and publicize the foundation she created in honor of her daughter Heather Heyer, an activist who was killed in August 2017 while protesting against white supremacists at a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, VA.

The Shorty Social Good Awards honor the social good initiatives brands, agencies and nonprofits are taking to make our world a better place.

The group includes Ogilvy Vice President of Social Change Kate Hull Fliflet, Matchfire Founder and CEO Chris Noble, Former White House Creative Director and Digital Strategist Ashleigh Axios, ATTN: Partner Brad Haugen, and more.
