There’s nothing better than a sincere, instinctive seal of approval or “job well done.” Not because you need an ego boost, but because you’ve poured your heart into something. Words can’t describe an audience that really appreciates your work.
“Our Speaking of HOPE event turned out to be a ‘home run,’ to put it in the words of our guests. They actually gushed about it.”
– Director of Donor Relations at Columbia St. Mary’s Foundation
Okay, sometimes words do a pretty darn good job.
2-Story recently had the privilege of helping to name and brand this new Columbia St. Mary’s Foundation event to benefit their Cancer Center. They were looking for a fun Friday night out, paired with a compelling keynote speaker, wrapped into a fresh fundraiser. Well, kudos to them. They nailed it. And good news for you – they plan to make this an annual event.
Even the keynote speaker Kelly Corrigan had a blast >>
When we first set out to brand the event, we came up with a variety of ways to do it. Some edgier than others, some sweeter, some punnier, but all with the goal of engaging an audience, empowering cancer patients and survivors, and uniting people in support of a very good cause.
One reason “Speaking of HOPE” rose to the top was because of its adaptability. “Speaking of…” can start a conversation on any topic, whether it be courage, spirit, laughter, hope or otherwise. Year after year, the theme can focus uniquely on the speaker and on Columbia St. Mary’s most relevant subject matter. Yet the event will always be a platform for inviting others to join the dialogue.
