Another week another event!
This week one of our big clients - The Liver Foundation of WA had a fundraising event, it was all hands on deck as we prepared for the evening!
Once all the planning is in place and a venue has been selected (Kailis Brothers Leederville) the hard task begins - finding event attendees! As with any event it is important that the attendees have strong association and commitment to the cause of the event. My job was to find people that were relevant and had the ability to benefit the cause of the Liver Foundation.
After what seemed to be thousands of emails back and forth we eventually had a strong base of attendees, high profile guests such as the Chief Scientist of WA, the Premier of WA and many more health based organisations would soon be attending the event to show their support and find out key information on the organisation and its main cause.
This event was held specifically to promote the Liver Foundation of WA's new 'Outback Track' initiative which took education, support and medical supplies to the remote areas of outback Western Australia.
The 32dsg team worked very hard and the event was extremely successful gaining full support from Colin Barnett, we also received numerous donations from many attendees. It was a welcoming experience working at a fundraising event and something that I had never experienced in the past.
Not only did I take away fantastic knowledge of how these events are run but also vital information on how the Liver Foundation of WA service the state and see the great work that they do for West Australians in remote and regional areas.
My time here at 32 Degrees South Group is wrapping up, next week is my last week but I am sure there is still some exciting things ahead!
