Thank you to everyone who participated in Lerii’s 60th Birthday Celebration! We received scores of responses via video, text, voice, and social media. It is evident how much of an impact Lerii has made and continues to make in our community. As we wrap up this birthday month, we have a final gift for Lerii…a video compilation of all of the submissions.
On behalf of the team at Project Partners, happy birthday, Lerii! You are our founder, leader, and mentor, but more than anything you are our friend. Cheers!
Beginning in 1995, Project Partners has been on a joyous journey of “doing good” for our community alongside hundreds of mission-focused organizations and their staff, clients, and volunteers. Lerii Smith has been our company’s visionary leader from day 1 – always ready to help great causes and the great people behind them to reach new heights.
This month, we are coming upon a momentous point in our journey together. It’s both a chance to look back, and a chance to look forward. Most of all, it’s a chance to celebrate! It’s Lerii’s 60th birthday!
Whether you connected to Project Partners 26 years ago or 26 days ago, you can be a part of the celebration by adding your birthday message to Lerii.
The Plano ISD Education Foundation has turned to Project Partners for a fourth assignment, this time for consulting and project management in support of the endowment campaign for the new Robbie & Lynore Fine Arts Center. Past work has included grant writing and grant program coordination, plus we were happy to present two of our training programs at the Foundation’s board retreat - “Your Board’s Role in Fundraising” and “Business and Education Partnerships – Creating a Lovefest.” The Plano ISD Education Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to help all students in the Plano Independent School District achieve their full potential by providing financial support to educators and academic programs.
Education foundations are a sweet spot for us. Please reach out to learn why.
After successfully navigating the challenges of fundraising through a pandemic, including shifting their annual fundraising event, Noche de Gracias, to an online/digital experience, Cassata Catholic High School has retained Project Partners for a sixth year of service. Our team will continue to provide comprehensive development services to include, major gifts, grants, individual giving, donor relations, and the Noche de Gracias event - plus strategic communications.
Melody Derrig, Noche de Gracias Event Committee Member and Silent Auction Chair said, “Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication! Thanks also for keeping such a positive attitude in such unknown times. We are truly grateful and really enjoyed working with Project Partners on the first ever virtual Noche de Gracias event.”
Cassata Catholic High School was founded in 1975 to provide an effective, quality education that enables students of all backgrounds to raise their educational level and complete their secondary education.
