Hanna Lee Communications, Inc., an award-winning PR and marketing agency now celebrating its 15th anniversary, announced its first-ever Global Bartender Travel Scholarship.
The agency has earmarked $15,000 to be awarded to 15 bartenders ($1,000 for each bartender) around the world to support their attending important spirits industry conferences for education and inspiration. The scholarship will be awarded annually and the agency will match the number of recipients to its anniversary year.
“Throughout the years, bartenders have played a crucial role in our success and this global scholarship is our way of showing our appreciation and gratitude,” says Hanna Lee, founder. “We look forward to helping worthy bartenders access immersive educational experiences that travel makes possible.”
Hanna Lee Communications, which specializes in bar, restaurant, hotel, spirits and travel PR, has built numerous successful global brands and collaborated extensively with bartenders.
Over the years, the agency has given back to the community through its “Meet the Inspiring Authors” book-signing events that currently count 30 authors, and “Meet the Trailblazing Women” series, which features over 150 influential leaders in hospitality. The agency has also provided more than two dozen scholarships, to date, for Gary “gaz” Regan’s Cocktails in the Country.
