CASA 5K: Benefiting CASA of Tarrant County

Situation

In college, I was elected to be the PR/Marketing Director on the Executive “Run” Team for the 27th Annual CASA 5K Fundraiser.

Task

I was tasked with leading a team and creating the theme/narrative of the 2018 CASA 5K. I was in charge of designs, vendor partnerships, merchandise design, orders, and sales.

Action & Result

I was inspired by Fort Worth’s rich history for this project and decided to lean into the idea of Experience Fort Worth; this led me to create a vintage-inspired postcard design for marketing purposes. Once the idea came to life, I decided that I didn’t want to just have a postcard design — I wanted to create actual postcards to send to alumni and local businesses! 

Experience Fort Worth was a way of embracing all that the city had to offer. From restaurants to boutiques to legal firms, we offered local sponsors the opportunity to have immersive advertisements along the route.
