**Environics Communications in D.C.** announced the two beneficiaries of its #GivingTuesday initiative, which donates $20,000 of pro-bono communications work to two Washington-area nonprofits. Environics selected the Animal Welfare Institute and the Mathematical Association of America to each receive $10,000 worth of communications work. “We are delighted to provide both these nonprofits with a dynamic communications campaign, including both digital and traditional tactics, to help them further their missions,” said **Mimi Carter**, U.S. general manager of the Toronto-based agency.

**Chase Communications,** a public relations and marketing communications firm co-headquartered in San Francisco and D.C, announced the hiring of former Colon Cancer Alliance special events marketing coordinator **Gabrielle Nadel**. Nadel, based in D.C., is the firm’s new account manager and digital strategist.

**And, January 3, marked 70 years since WTTG** became the first commercial television station in D.C. WTTG went on the air as part of the Dumont Television Network. The station’s call letters came from Dumont’s chief engineer – **Thomas T. Goldsmith**. He literally put the ‘TTG’ in WTTG!
