Atlantic Institute Honors Colleen Troy and Two Others

Congratulations to Colleen Troy for being awarded the Media and Communications Award at the 2018 Atlantic Peace & Dialogue Awards Ceremony hosted by the Atlantic Institute.

Congratulations to the other honorees, Jennet Robinson Alterman and Tina L. Singleton.

This award is given to an individual or an organization that uses their abilities toward bettering the community, bringing awareness and action to a social problem or play a prominent role in the community for an advocate of change.

We believe that Colleen checks all of those boxes.

She founded Touchpoint Communications in 2005 to help organizations tell their stories. With decades of industry experience, her tenacity has helped organizations reach their goals whether it be breaking the Guinness book of world records for the World’s Largest Sweet Tea or helping One80 Place raise over $40,000 for its annual Turkey & a $20 donation drive, the list goes on.

Colleen serves the marketing community as a frequent adjunct professor at the College of Charleston and a freelance magazine writer; and she sits on the boards of the Coastal Community Foundation and One80 Place.

This year, Colleen was also named Marketer of the Year by the American Marketing Association.
