Nomination Title: Port Authority of NY & NJ - Corporate Commemorative Campaign
1st quarter, 2002
This campaign was created by the Port Authority in the aftermath of destruction of the World Trade Center, trying to express the terrible sorrow we felt as an agency that suffered devastating losses -- 84 of our employees perished on September 11, 2001, and we lost our home. We had to show the people of the region and the nation that we would recover, and remain strong throughout, committed to maintaining service levels and to rebuilding.
