Spirit Media Raises Bar for First Quarter Fundraisers
Portland, OR, June 11, 2009 - Spirit Media, a Portland based creative agency, partnered with local, national and international organizations to provide event strategy and direction to maximize the impact on capital campaigns and fundraising events during the first quarter of 2009.
"This is our sixth year working with Spirit Media," says Maree Wacker, Chief Development and Communications Officer for the American Red Cross, Oregon Trail Chapter. "Every year Spirit Media brings a fresh, inspired perspective to making our annual fundraising event even better than it was the year before. And, it works, since each year we hear "best ever" from our guests!"
David Gallagher, Founder of Open Arms International says, "Our Good Friday Breakfast is one of two annual events we put on where hundreds of people make very quick judgments about the quality and professionalism of our organization. Spirit Media, through their expertise and professionalism, makes our organization look great and shapes peoples' opinions of our work very positively. Their diligence and professionalism is something that you can't put a price on; that added value to us as a client is called "peace of mind"."
Kevin Hohnbaum, representing the Oregon Chapter of the American Marketing Association agrees, "Spirit Media is a great partner! Each year, Bill Dolan and his team work with us to take our event to the next level. Not only did they produce an excellent video that told a story better than an emcee and a microphone could do alone, they advised us along the way with all aspects of our event."
Bill Dolan, President and Creative Director of Spirit Media, has 30 years of television and marketing experience. After directing live and taped broadcasts for 12 years at the Portland, Oregon ABC affiliate, Bill founded Spirit Media. As an Emmy-nominated TV Producer and Director, Bill has produced live events for 500 to 250,000 people, directed national and international broadcasts for millions, and has acted as director and creative consultant for hundreds of organizations from Fortune 500 companies to global non-profit agencies.
