Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation Continues Commitment to Social Media

DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Feb. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In January 2011, Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation turned to RealTime Marketing Group with hopes of bringing their remarkable cause into the digital age. The primary mission of the Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation (BOHMF) is to assist police departments and the families of officers slain in the line of duty to claim survivor benefits that they are entitled to. Their website states "The widow of a slain officer should not be bogged down in paperwork. The daughter of a slain officer should not have to forego college because there was nobody aware of and experienced in filling out the forms needed to lock in payment of her education costs. An already overworked police department should not have to pass the hat for a family -- they have given enough. We exist to serve as their advocates, and to give back and express the gratitude we all feel for taking our safety for granted."

Realizing the enormous potential for such an organization on social media, RealTime Marketing Group developed a social advertising campaign, as well as branded Twitter and Facebook pages to help spread the word of BOHMF's mission. Since the social media campaign began, BOHMF has gained nearly 5,000 Facebook fans who regularly interact with the foundation, as well as 850 Twitter followers. RealTime's CEO, Terra Spero, commented, "Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation's mission is one that we truly admire. We feel very fortunate for the opportunity to tell the world about what this organization is doing for the families of our fallen heroes. After all, these men and women give their lives to protect each and every one of us; this is the least we can do for them."
