Meet Marley!

When the City of Meriden Public Health and Human Services Department hired us, they wanted more than just a brand for their kids vaccine clinic. They wanted to establish a deeper connection with the families they serve, provide resources to help them make informed decisions, and make vaccines a little less scary for their youngest customers. Marley the Meriden Lion was born and he has been traveling all over Meriden to remind everyone that staying healthy takes courage!
