In an earlier post, I shared that one of my intentions was to fall back in love with my role as an event producer. My first event of the year was a beautiful reminder of why I do this work.
I had the honor of supporting my client as she celebrated what would have been her mother, Ms. Minnie Russell’s, 100th birthday. The event, Minnie’s Memory, was both a commemoration and a moment of education. We created space to share information about Alzheimer’s disease, which took Ms. Minnie’s life, and provided much-needed resources for those caring for loved ones living with dementia.
Ms. Minnie was known for her fabulous hats, and her collection was auctioned during the event, raising funds for Actively Caring Through Sharing (ACTS), an incredible support organization for caregivers.
This experience was a powerful reminder that events can honor legacy, build awareness, and truly make a difference. It definitely helped me reconnect with why I love what I do.
