All the votes have been tallied and after an outpouring of support from our wonderful clients and fans, we are proud to announce that Squeaky is the recipient of not one, but two Pixel Awards.

Both Almay and I Had Cancer walked away with People’s Champ Awards and we couldn’t be more flattered.

We enter many awards competitions throughout the year but the Pixel Awards is one of our favorites because they allow the people to vote and winning the fans’ award is especially cool and democratic.

We’d like to thank our amazing clients and awesome, hard-working staff for this great recognition. We strive to make all the work we produce award-worthy and when others take notice it makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside.

Thanks again for all your support and for taking time to vote for us.

We at Squeaky love to celebrate the diversity of our team, and jump on cultural opportunities like this when they pop up in New York City. So go, buy your tickets, and make sure to get there early (the theaters fill up very quickly).

So far, holiday spending is up 15% from last year (comScore) and according to USA Today and the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University, charitable giving has also risen slightly from 2009-2010.
