May 24th Fort Worth Sister Cities Mayor's International Dinner and Global Awards
Project Partners once again served as logistics coordinator and show producer for the May 24th Fort Worth Sister Cities Mayor’s International Dinner and Global Awards event which boasted more than 500 guests at the Omni in downtown Fort Worth. As part of the 2014 assessment and messaging work, we helped Fort Worth Sister Cities transform this major, annual event from a themed fundraiser to a mission-driven event and integral initiative of the annual giving campaign. The Members Circle donors now make this event possible, and benefit from tables and tickets, providing an opportunity to widen this thriving network of individuals, organizations, corporations, and community leaders dedicated to expanding global relationships for peace and prosperity at home and abroad.
