Egg-citing News: Chicago PR Agency H5 Wins 2026 PRSA Silver Anvil Award

May 18, 2026

Talk about an egg-cellent achievement! Agency H5 has earned another PRSA Silver Anvil Award for executing a standout program by a PR agency, launching Brach’s® First-Ever Easter Egg Hunt Hiding Service.  

The PRSA Anvil awards are among the most prestigious honors in the PR industry, and we were thrilled to achieve a win for Brach’s Egg Hunt Hiders in the “Events and Observances More Than 7 Days” category.  

Building on an uncovered insight around egg hunts being among Americans’ favorite Easter/spring traditions and the desire to reclaim it as an activity for the whole family1, H5 and Brach’s set out to develop a strategic, family-focused campaign leveraging the brand’s classic seasonal product: jelly beans. And it cracked open some major recognition. 

“Our partnership with Brach’s continues to prove what’s possible when bold thinking and a cultural moment meets true collaboration, delivering award-winning, outside-the-box campaigns that make all of us at H5 PRoud,” said H5 Strategist, Carmen Liberto.

The only thing sweeter than jelly beans? Bringing home accolades that showcase the hard work, creativity and collaboration between H5 and our clients.
