Going Strong in 2006





In late 2005 Blood:Water Mission again tapped me to oversee and plan their first fundraising banquet. Together we hosted this event for the organization's donors and supporters in February of 2006 at Michael W. Smith's farm. I came up with the creative direction of the banquet, including the decorations, table settings, programs and hand-made thank you gifts as well as handled the details like the catering and rentals. With over 100 guests in attendance the evening was a huge success for this wonderful non-profit, and I was incredibly pleased to have been a part of it.

In a note received after the event, Blood:Water's Executive Director, Jena Lee Nardella, wrote:
"You are absolutely AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for your hard work, creativity and organization of our banquet. The evening completely exceeded my expectations! I had so many people come up to tell me that it was by far the best event they had been a part of. I am so thankful for you and the ways you have served Blood:Water Mission. It was simply fantastic. Thank you so much!"
Needless to say, I was the one who was honored.
