First Call: Marketing and Events Intern *
During my internship at First Call, I had the opportunity to apply the skills I’ve learned in class to real-world projects and events. I helped organize a variety of events, including their biggest fundraiser of the year, the annual gala. I supported their cause marketing efforts by reaching out to businesses, coordinating donation drives, and assisting with community outreach. This experience strengthened my strategic communication skills and gave me hands-on experience creating meaningful, impactful work. Below is a collection of marketing and social media content I created during my time with First Call.
During my internship at First Call, I led a community outreach initiative focused on building cause-marketing partnerships and increasing public awareness of First Call’s mission. I developed and executed a Holiday Donation Drive by reaching out to potential partner businesses, crafting a professional proposal, and reaching out to existing community partners to encourage their involvement.
This project strengthened my skills in relationship building, strategic communication, and project coordination. I gained hands-on experience in writing proposals, pitching ideas to stakeholders, and managing outreach efforts from start to finish. Additionally, I learned how to align organizational goals with community needs, create mutually beneficial partnerships, and promote a cause through clear messaging and strategic planning.
