“Lauren is a delight to work with. What struck me was her unique ability to create sharp and highly effective communications and messages at the Corporate level. Her willingness to go above and beyond to help employees showcase an organization's strengths is truly remarkable. An extreme researcher, highly innovative in her approach, outstanding work and business ethics makes Lauren a truly outstanding Global communications person. Her innovative and forward thinking approach is exeplary. I have had the pleasure of working with Lauren with Stanford University, Reddit and everything that goes beyond the conventional messaging for a Corporation. Needless to say, I learnt much from her and wish her the very best. I will endorse Lauren's services to anyone, anyday!”

2015 Boston Marathon Campaign: There's only one Boston
The 2015 Boston Marathon theme, There’s Only One Boston, celebrates the unique spirit of the race, and the city. Every year, thousands of journeys that began around the world come together on streets paved in history and tradition to create memories that last forever. Boston is a course where those who have only ever run a 5k take the same steps as Olympic medalists, spectators cheer along the route even louder than the year before and volunteers man the same water station for decades.

The 2015 Boston Marathon theme, There’s Only One Boston, celebrates the unique spirit of the race, and the city. Every year, thousands of journeys that began around the world come together on streets paved in history and tradition to create memories that last forever. Boston is a course where those who have only ever run a 5k take the same steps as Olympic medalists, spectators cheer along the route even louder than the year before and volunteers man the same water station for decades. In 2015, in celebration of the incredible history that surrounds the Boston Marathon, John Hancock created a digital time capsule, encouraging users to be part of the legacy by using #WeRunTogether to submit photos, videos and stories via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. For each submission John Hancock will donate $1 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston, up to $26,200.

The 2014 Boston Marathon Campaign: #WeRunTogether was a cross channel campaign supported by paid social across Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. The #WeRunTogether experience encouraged the Marathon community – runners, fans, volunteers, and non-profits – to share their reasons for participating in the Boston Marathon in the form of videos, photos and/or text. All content was aggregated into the mosaic visualization –representing the connectivity of the extended Boston Marathon community. For each submission, John Hancock donated $1 to the One Fund.
By creating a shared space for conversations around the race, John Hancock was able to show its commitment and support for the Boston Marathon, drive national awareness of their sponsorship and promote their non-profit fundraising partnership with CrowdRise. John Hancock raised over $28+ million.
Affinity-based targeting via paid social played a significant role in driving awareness of #WeRunTogether and ultimately engagement with the Mosaic – with 33,230 stories submitted.
Over the course of 4 weeks, the #WeRunTogether hashtag was used more than 42,000 times across social channels and the #WeRunTogether hashtag was a trending topic nationally on Twitter on Marathon Monday.
