I want to go into wedding/event planning when I graduate, and I have planned an event! It's a philanthropic (charity) event called Charity Denim. Alpha Chi Omega Beta Xi chapter is putting it on in order to raise money to help build "Adventure Playground" in Logan, Utah. This playground is a fully handicap-accessible park built entirely by volunteers through donations from the community. It is sponsored by the Whittier Center in Logan.
Charity Denim is to be held at Utah State University in the Taggart Student Center, in the International Lounge from 10am-4pm. We will be selling designer jeans for 40-60% off and a portion of every sale will go towards Adventure Playground.
For my advertising, I have 400 fliers that were donated by Kinko's and they have been set out in Cache Valley Mall at different stores, in the USU TSC, in the USU library,at Logan High School,handed out to individuals, announced in classes, and possibly set out in businesses. I have also sent a press release to the Utah Statesman for a write-up and to be put on the back burner. I sent a press release to the Herald Journal and the event will be posted in the Cache Magazine community calendar, as well as the "Happenings" page on their website. The sorority has also created an event on Facebook, and invited over 700 people. There are also signs placed in the TSC and on the sorority house right next to campus.
On Tuesday we will see how this turns out and how effective our advertising is. I will update.
