The Sexual Health Promotion Unit (SHPU) in Sacramento County, CA, is a Key Health Partner of Positive Peers. Looking to spur awareness throughout Sacramento and encourage enrollment in the online app, SHPU turned to Blue Star to create a two-month, multi-faced campaign that included bus signage, digital advertising, social media, and posters for their clinics. Unique QR and UTM codes were used to track leads.

Rama Road Elementary

Rama Road Elementary is a public school in Charlotte, NC, with 550 pupils, 80% of whom are minority students. Last year, the school’s mascot, a raccoon, was retired for reasons of racial sensitivity and replaced with a raptor. Rama’s principal asked Blue Star to create a logo representing the school’s spirit and values. The new mascot and logo are a significant part of the school’s brand, used on signage, spirit wear, and enrollment materials.

Rescue Retreat

Not long after Hurricane Ian made its way to SW Florida, the Kravchuks were left with a massive renovation of their newly purchased Airbnb property in Cape Coral, FL. As they reopened, they turned to Blue Star to create an online presence representing their beautiful home in the canals. We named their property The Rescue Retreat for their love of rescue dogs, Jim’s career as a firefighter and paramedic, and their response to helping others during the hurricane. We wrote their story and built a site to support their digital marketing efforts and show their love for furry friends. View the site
