The Press Institute hosted the second of two Harambees in Portland, Oregon last night. Both nights were intimate community events filled with laughter, connection, inspiration and celebration.
In total, we planted the seeds for long-term relationships with many new angel advocates, raised awareness with many more and raised almost $1,500!
$1,500 can provide employment for one individual as a journalist for one of PI's news desk and our global newswire for one year! As Cristi says, we are building toward sustainability one brick - or Harambee! - at a time!
I am so grateful to the following individuals organizations, who donated their time and product to make these Harmabees so successful:
Gabrielle Rapport
Gretchen Lee
Tiffany Abrams
Dan Cook
Up Front Bar and Grill
Melody Christensen, LMT
The Bleuphonk 5
You can learn more about Harambee, the Swahili word for "let's pull together", on Wikipedia.
