Agency Boss Gets Tossed in Boy Scouts Promotion

21Stories1.jpg

For 2011, Partners + Napier joined forces with the Boy Scouts of America for a new initiative called “Toss Your Boss.” Partners + Napier employees were challenged to raise $1,000 in donations. If they did so, Chief Creative Officer Jeff Gabel would rappel 309 feet down the First Federal Building in Downtown Rochester.

Well, the agency achieved that goal and raised over $1,000 in donations for the Seneca Waterways Council Urban Scouting Program, which serves more than 20,000 kids in the Rochester area. Thus, Jeff and six other agency employees strapped on their helmets and took the plunge a couple Fridays ago.
