The Hatcher Group Wins 58 Marketing and Communications Awards in 2021

BETHESDA, Md., Dec. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Hatcher Group, a full-service strategic communications and marketing firm, announced today it has won an unprecedented 58 awards for excellence in communications, design, events, marketing, social media, web, and video.

"It is a true honor to be recognized as among the best in our industry by such a diverse group of awards programs," said Amy Buckley, partner at Hatcher. "The winning projects represent the team's creativity and innovation that help our clients advance their missions, accomplish their goals, and influence our society on some of today's critical issues such as COVID-19, healthcare for Veterans, climate change, and equity for all. I'm very proud of our talented and hard-working team, and grateful to our clients for their partnership."

Hatcher received awards from Adobe Government Creativity, dotCOMM, Graphic Design USA, MarComm, and National Association of Government Communicators (NAGC). The firm's rebrand for SAAB won a Best in Show award from PRSA Maryland. Hatcher's Senior VP and Creative Director Reece Quiñones was named as one of GDUSA Magazine's people to watch and recognized as an AIGA DC fellow.

"For 20 years, Hatcher has used powerful marketing and communications to educate and motivate people to build movements and create a better world," said Amy Fahnestock, partner at Hatcher. "These awards are a testament to what is possible when passion and drive fuse in pursuit of a common goal – when we are powered by purpose."

Hatcher announced earlier this year that it was recognized as one of Bethesda Magazine's 2021 Top Places to Work, and was named as a finalist for PRNEWS Platinum Agency of the Year. Hatcher's team has grown to nearly 60 marketing and communications strategists, designers, digital experts, multimedia creators, event producers, writers, editors, and more.

These accolades follow Hatcher's announcement earlier this year of the acquisition of Horne Creative Group. The acquisition combined the talents of two purpose-driven firms and has expanded the scope of services Hatcher can provide to its growing portfolio of government, nonprofit, and foundation clients.
