John Guilfoil Public Relations of Groveland took home 12 awards at last week’s 58th annual Bell Ringer Awards and held its position as a finalist for New England’s top public relations campaign for a second consecutive year.
The Bell Ringer Awards are sponsored by the PR Club, whose awards honor exceptional work in the public relations in New England.
Company founder John Guilfoil expressed pride about his company’s achievements, saying, “As I stood at the Bell Ringer ceremony on Thursday, watching our team receive awards in nearly half of the categories, I could not help but be moved by the efforts of our team and the faith that our clients put in us every day.”
The firm was awarded with a Gold Bell for its campaign that focused on supporting and celebrating the 250th anniversary of Battle of Lexington and reintroducing the role of Lexington to a worldwide audience.
In total, the company took home two Gold Bells, three Silver Bells, two Bronze Bells and five Merit awards which were awarded to different team members.
Founded in 2013, John Guilfoil Public Relations was previously a Super Bell finalist in 2016 for the company’s work on Gloucester’s Angel initiative, and again in 2025 for its role in communicating to the public about the Dennis Police Department’s new Fourth of July beach public safety initiative. It has won 72 awards since 2016.
