Cherry Hill, NJ (May 18, 2026) -- Since its founding in 1984, FHPR has worked behind the scenes as advisors, problem-solvers, and strategic thinkers, helping clients achieve their goals and building public relations efforts around what matters most. Now, Sharla Feldscher, President; Hope Feldscher-Horwitz, Vice President; and Wendi Schweiger, Managing Director, are proud to formally introduce FHPR iMPACT — a reimagined brand that reflects the firm’s expanded scope and long-standing approach.

“For years, our work has gone beyond traditional public relations,” said Hope Feldscher-Horwitz. “We partner with leaders as strategic advisors identifying ways to reach their goals, designing community-centered solutions, and managing implementation from idea to execution. The brand - FHPR iMPACT -- puts language around what we’ve been doing all along.”

Through a combination of strategic advisory, community and partnership strategy, well thought out implementation and public relations, FHPR iMPACT helps organizations clarify goals, solve complex challenges, build community, and earn meaningful visibility.

“I’m proud of the direction we’re taking with FHPR iMPACT,” added Sharla Feldscher. “At our core, we’ve always created opportunities for our clients — developing the programs, partnerships and initiatives that lead to recognition, growth, and long-term value.”

“I’ve known Sharla Feldscher for over 30 years, and she and her team have always made a tremendous impact on our schools,” said Angela Corosanite, CEO of String Theory Schools. “They are one of the best communicators in the field, and they have proven over and over that their strategy works. They come up with creative plans that lead to outstanding publicity opportunities. FHPR iMPACT works tirelessly to share our mission, and always considers our school their priority, no matter how many other clients they have.”

Their approach is reflected in the firm’s work across industries. When engaged by the environmental law firm Manko, Gold, Katcher & Fox, LLP, FHPR identified an opportunity to elevate the firm’s presence despite the confidential nature of its work. The result was the creation of The Environmental Community Service Award, a program recognizing schools for environmental initiatives that benefit the community.

The initiative brought together partners including Wawa as a co-presenter, along with media sponsors such as NBC10 Philadelphia and 6abc Action News. Over 12 years, the program honored 24 schools, each receiving $5,000, with surprise presentations that included Wawa’s iconic mascot, Wally Goose, and extensive media coverage.

“This was meaningful for everyone involved — the students, educators, partners, and our client,” Feldscher said. “It’s a perfect example of how thoughtful strategy and partnership can create impact that extends far beyond traditional PR.”

Today, FHPR iMPACT continues to work with organizations, businesses, and institutions seeking a partner that can help define goals, build relationships, and create recognition that matters.
