Promotional Party (IYC Fundraising Success)

Last night, the International Youth Council had an awesome (yes, I went there) party on fifth avenue and 21st Street. We threw a party that was well attended, fun and had some amazing people attending. Furthermore, I managed to network, make some friends and mingle.

 It was the first party that the IYC Communications team have ever promoted in New York City and I was positively surprised by the turnout. I am happy the Reginald pushed me so hard to create the flier and that Asha asked for the promotional materials to be on hand. It was easy for me to organize the printing of the brochures that Gioretti had slaved over and it was a lovely extra touch to the night.

We ended up raising more than expected and we have been motivated to create a second networking mixer. It promises to be better than the last one and it will be worth attending.

I will keep you updated! I am looking forward to the Youth Assembly. I will be facilitating the Think Tank on Advocacy and Social Media--plus some of the MDG ones. Wish me luck. Thank you for reading....
