- Write up press releases around multiple news-worthy stories
- Identify media outlets that are most beneficial to us/most likely to pick the story up
- Send press releases and establish positive rapport with local media contacts
- Find media exposure for our organization

The final deliverables should take the form of:
- Press releases that are ready to be published
- A list of local media outlets that we can partner with along with contacts
- Communication established with those media outlets and conversations underway promoting the press releases for our zero waste grocery store.
