An Interview with Jenni Henry, development manager, Girls on the Run

FS: Can you describe a recent successful fundraising effort?
JH: We celebrated our ninth annual Girls on the Run Chicago Gala in November 2008. The event, attended by nearly 700 people, was held at the Park West and was comprised of a VIP cocktail reception; award presentation to the volunteer, coach and community partner of the year; live music by Underwater People; and a silent and live auction and raffle.
