Recognize this photo, or any of the aspiring advertisers in it? Even if you don't, let us tell you about the impressive feats they've pulled off, and how you can help them take the next step toward an even bigger accomplishment—and the professional benefits that would come after.

Who They Are
The students above are part of a team in the National Student Advertising Competition (NSAC), a nationwide competition featuring thousands of students who form mini-agencies to build a campaign for a real client. This team is comprised of 19 talented GVSU students, 4 research members, 4 media planning members, 4 integrated promotions members, 4 creatives, 1 fundraiser, and 2 account executives, and they've spent nearly a year researching, strategizing, creating, and practicing to perfect their campaign and pitch.

What They've Done
This photo was taken moments after GVSU's NSAC team won first place in the District 6 finals. These students will already stand out from their fellow advertising majors, as they have proven their dedication and hard work to this campaign. Only two short weeks after this moment, GVSU's NSAC team sat, nervous but ready to handle the NSAC semi-finals, which included a five minute video pitch and ten minute question and answer session about the student's campaign book: the project that held two-semesters worth of late night researching, sticky-note scribbling, idea pitching, and graphic creating.

The following day, the teams moving on to the final round of the NSAC were announced. This team had made it through the semi-final round, making GVSU history. To continue to make history, they needs your help.

Where They're Going
The funds from this page will go towards the travel and stay expenses for this team as they head to New Orleans, Louisiana, to compete in the National Student Advertising Team finals on June 7th- 9th. This event will boast thousands of professionals from around the country. It will be a chance to showcase GVSU's robust Ad/PR program, represent Michigan on a national forum, and to introduce future employers to some of Grand Valley's most marketable young pros.
