“Kids Who Care will be 20 years old in July, and Kelly Shafer is the first media professional I have worked with that truly understands the power of public relations. She is dynamic, positive, knowledgeable, assertive and efficient. Generating a powerhouse of ideas, Kelly is also balanced with realistic projections of budgets, timelines and outcome. It is incredible to find someone who is just as excited about Kids Who Care as we are! She shares the real heart of our company and is truly gifted at making what we do visible. I would hire her 10 times over again!!! I hope we celebrate the next 20 years together!"

“Kelly Shafer has almost a ‘sixth-sense’ when it comes to honing in on what is and isn’t news-worthy and therefore what will and will not be covered in the media. She has my confidence when it comes to her tenacity in getting news, updates, and stories covered on TV and published in print. Both JODesign and my clients have increased name recognition through Shafer Communications’ efforts.”
Jennifer Henderson

Owner, JODesign
