H.O.P.E. Tour
Project Overview:
Homelessness and hopelessness are serious problems in impoverished communities. H.O.P.E., Healing Opportunities for People Everywhere, was a multimedia & community service project I started to help those who are less fortunate. I traveled to homeless communities and gave out supplies, connected people to local resources, & shared their stories.
Project Scope:
Event Planning, Leadership, & Public Speaking
Results:
Built from scratch several fundraisers + a Facebook page (367 likes), Instagram (1,069 followers), and Twitter (64 followers)
Created media content & used Facebook paid promotion to gain more fundraising traction
Distributed supplies to people in need
Hosted an event with a team of volunteers for the Ithaca, NY homeless community that included a buffet dinner, live music, and donated prizes (e.g., guitar, grill, new mountain bike, among many other prizes)
