Dancing For the Health Of It - Health For All Team Lead

Bryan, Texas- 01/2022-05/2022

Along with an amazing team, I organized and planned a fundraiser for a local non-profit health clinic in Bryan, Texas. This event was a spin-off of the popular TV show “Dancing with the Stars”. We gathered local celebrities in the Bryan/College Station area and had them train with professional dancers to compete for the winning title. Each guest that attended the event would vote on their favorite pair by donating money. All of the proceeds were donated the the Health For All, non profit clinic. It was our job to organize every detail including the decorations, donors, contacting celebrities, locating a venue and much more. As a team lead, it was my responsibility to delegate tasks, stay in contact with everyone involved in the operation, and oversee the details my team implemented.
