SCOM 350: Introduction to Organizational Communication
Service Learning Project Fall 2019
Harrisonburg Harmonizers
Our group planned and hosted 2 events for the HH. A proceeds night at Applebees to raise money and awareness for the group and a membership guest night at Providence Baptist Church to recruit new members to the group.
We raised $150 dollars at the proceeds night, which was enough to cover the expenses of the guest night. We collected donations from local businesses for door prizes for the guest night; such as a gift card for Maestro Barbershop, a Noteoriety CD, 100 cookies from Insomnia Cookies, and 2 tickets to a show at Forbes center.
I created the flier, marketing the membership guest night and the invitation for members to give to friends and family. I hung the 25 fliers in other churches, barbershops, and downtown hotspots such as Jimmy Madison Southern Kitchen. I also took photos of the event for use on their website.
We had a turnout of 10 guests at the guest night, which was 3x as many attendees as the group normally has for guest events.
