Project HOPE

• We worked with Project HOPE for the planning and implementation of a series of events for its 50th Anniversary and Capital Campaign launch in November 2008. From initial goal setting and project plans through executing four events that included a Gala with representatives from three U.S. Presidential Families and an event at the United Nations, we supplied consultation and hands-on support. We also served as a liaison for the production of long-term displays and collateral materials, assisted with the creation and fulfillment of sponsorship packages, and provided stage management and vendor services for all the events.
Subsequently, we produced a fundraising event at the Chinese Embassy in Washington, D.C. in September 2009 that featured a successful silent auction of artwork produced by children at the Shanghai Children's Medical Center, one of Project HOPE's initiatives. Currently, we are producing a fundraising gala for them in Washington, D.C.

•We worked with Pace University on its Centennial from 2004-2006. We produced a strategic plan and budget for the Centennial and assisted with the implementation of a year-long series of events, including an event with former President Bill Clinton and Commencement Ceremonies. We produced a four-day conference, Aftershock, that commemorated the 5th Anniversary of 9/11 with four keynote speakers, eight panels, the preview of a documentary, a session for Crain's, and live broadcasts for NY1. We also conducted an assessment of Pace’s internal events department and provided a report and recommendations on improving efficiency and trimming costs.
