Arrange for some lowly staff reporter/photographer from The St. Pete. Times's "Lifestyles", or equivalent, section come out to do a little story and print a picture. If they aren't interested you need to set up a charity event, even if only a small percentage is actually gong to charity. I'll bet you'd have no problem getting a paper or local T.V. news broadcast out then.

Once that is solidified you should have a great angle to pitch. If some of these corporate greed mongers know that their bucks will translate into, near future, public exposure - you may have a good shot at real dollars and a somewhat respectable name printed on everything...
