Take a look at some questions we asked Carrie & Anna<br />

Sass regarding their experience in the Public Relations<br />

business as well as advice offered:<br />

<strong>Karima</strong>: How do you handle the unexpected?<br />

C. Sass: Take a deep breath, figure it out and move on.<br />

It happens all the time in this industry.<br />

exciting, because it brings all kinds of great people<br />

together for a common cause. It is all about kids. It’s<br />

really a happy day and it’s free to everyone. There are<br />

interactive booths, arts and crafts, free books, &<br />

entertainment. The Grupe Company gives us the entire<br />

come together to support literacy.<br />
