Lets grant them a wish a take away their sorrow

So please promise you’ll come…
(Because Baby it's warm inside)

During the holiday season, deeds somehow seem to carry more weight. People are more peaceful, more loving and are more likely to open their hearts and minds to others. This year, we at K4K will be hosting Baby It’s Warm Inside, a Silent Auction Gala that will be held at the Atwater Club on December 10th from 5pm to 7pm where all proceeds will go to granting the wishes of children with life threatening illnesses at the Children's Wish Foundation. If you are willing to help us, please consider sponsoring this event. You can either give a monetary donation, product donation or service donation. 

If you are interested in being a sponsor at the Baby It's Warm Inside... event, please let me know!

Baby It's Warm Inside... Poster

As my previous blog post stated, the K4K event changed from a Winter Wonderland carnival for children to a Silent Auction gala for adults. Again, since I have a background in graphic arts, I was assigned to create a new design for the posters, tickets and thank you cards.

Since Baby It's Warm Inside has a holiday feel, I decided to use a redish background with white snowflakes. I played with two different fonts: Edwardian Script for the title and event description, Helvetica for the the time/place/price. To me, it exudes warmness. It is inviting and I hope that our guests will think the same and come to the event.

So, again, I want to invite you to Baby It's Warm Inside's Silent Auction gala in a 5@7 form. See you at 5PM at the Atwater Club on December 10, 2011!!!

K4K: Baby It's Warm Inside...

Small change!!!!! The K4K foundraiser event is now targeting adults (30-60 year olds), as well as companies. The new event will be in the form of a 5@7 Silent Auction gala instead of a Winter Wonderland carnival.

K4K (kare for kids) is a group of young adults who want to take action and make a difference however we are unable to do so without the guests' kindness. Not only will it provide them (companies) with the personal satisfaction of making a difference this holiday season, but it will allow their customers to feel more confident and have a positive affiliation to their brand based on their contributions to their local community.

During the event, various products will be auctioned: Canada Goose jacket, concert tickets, Disney on ice tickets, restaurants gift certificates, purses, spa gift cards and packages, jewelery, and much much more.

Please join us at K4K's Baby It's Warm Inside... Friday December 10 at 5PM!

K4K Advertising

As my previous blog post stated, my Event Planning class and I are planning a fundraiser for the children at Make a Wish Foundation. Since I have a background in graphic arts, I was assigned to create a logo for our event, as well as a poster and tickets.

For the logo, I really wanted to incorporate kids, as well as the name (K4K). I wanted the logo to be simple, straightforward and to the point, and still have an impact on the people that come across it. The idea I came up with incorporates all that! I think :P As for the poster and the tickets, the theme for our event is : Winter Wonderland Carnival. I did not want it to look to messy and over-the-top, so I used just one image (the background) and played with different fonts. The text on the poster gives brief information on the event (what? where? when? why? who?). Here is what I came up with! Tell me what you think...

K4K

I am excited to present my Event Planning class's new project: K4K (kids for kids)!

We are still in the brainstorming part of the event, but here is what we know so far:

• What? Fundraisor for the children's Make a Wish Foundation 
• Everyday families will be attending to raise money and then donate it to the kids from the Make a Wish Foundation (or we can grant a kids wish at the event)
• When? December 9, 2010

The main idea is to bring joy to children who deeply need something to smile about, especially during that time a year. Christmas time is the season of giving, so let's give back! We mainly want other children to help the Make a Wish kids. We feel it is good for children to be aware that there are people their age who are less fortunate than they are. Of course, parents will be invited as well. Since the event's activities will be more for the children, we want to find a fun way to include grown-ups. I remembered a scene in The Santa Claus 2 that I found would be a great inspiration for this event. Let me know what you think!

Here is the link to the video (start it at about 6min.):

Lanvin for H&M 2

OMG is what I keep telling myself after watching H&M's video campaign for their collaboration with Lanvin. WOW! It is simply amazing!

The line is gorgeous! A lot of fun, flirty and sexy dresses for both young and older women. They even play with the various ages by putting the same dress on a 20 year-old and on a 80 year-old. As promised, Lanvin's dresses have his signature ruffles and flattering, feminine silhouettes. The color palette is mostly made up of black, red, bright pink, yellow and a variety of bold prints (floral, zebra, leopard). Some 45 looks include: faux fur vests, draped asymmetrical dresses, ankle wrap heels and flouncy skirts. Lanvin's H&M line looks a lot like his Spring-Summer 2010 collection. So women worldwide can get the runway look without paying thousands of dollars!

The video itself is great! Absurd, a tad eerie, but oh so fabulous, the video definitely shows Lanvin's personality. In a crazy hotel, women go crazy for Lanvin's newest clothes. French words are being tossed in air bubbles, a woman takes a shower fully dressed, another is walking on a treadmill... In general, the video is pretty creepy, but I love it! It's fierce!!! 

Here's the video! Hope you guys like it! BTW the line comes out November 23!!!
