Monday, 22 November 2021
After supporting the organization financially in several years, EHRENBERG SØRENSEN Kommunikation will now also provide their skills and expertise within the field of PR and communication in order to increase the awareness of Mercy Ships and their work among more people and companies. With the launch of the hospital ship Global Mercy in the spring of 2022, the organization expects to double the impact of their humanitarian work globally.
The communications agency EHRENBERG SØRENSEN Kommunikation and the Danish department of Mercy Ships form a new partnership regarding PR and communication to make even more people and companies aware of the humanitarian organization’s humanitarian aid which involves both free medical care, health benefits, surgeries and medical capacity building in the world’s poorest countries.
“We are very happy about the partnership with Mercy Ships Danmark where we will put increased awareness of Mercy Ships’s brand and the new hospital ship Global Mercy on the agenda. Mercy Ships does a fantastic job which we have supported for many years. The partnership is a perfect match as it gives us the possibility to use our expertise and knowledge of the maritime industry in a way, so we hopefully can get even more people on board with Mercy Ships’s work,” says Allan Sonne Sørensen, Partner and CEO at EHRENBERG SØRENSEN Kommunikation.
EHRENBERG SØRENSEN Kommunikation is a specialized agency with many years’ experience within the maritime industry. Among other things, the partnership between Mercy Ships Danmark and the agency aim to increase the awareness of Mercy Ships and by doing so also help the recruitment of volunteers and attract donors.
“We look forward to helping even more people when our new hospital ship Global Mercy starts operating in the spring of 2022. By forming a partnership with EHRENBERG SØRENSEN Kommunikation, we hope to inform even more people of our work and effort in those countries we are visiting with our hospital ships,” says Christian Sophus Ehlers, CEO at Mercy Ships Danmark.
With the new Hospital Ship’s upcoming visit in Rotterdam followed by the ship’s first official voyage to Senegal in the beginning of 2022, the partnership contains a lot of exciting possibilities.
