THE WORLD’S LARGEST HOME IMPROVEMENT RETAILER
With more than 2,200 stores across North America spearheaded a fundraising event of immense complexity. A golf tournament tour with a community building component to help injured veterans spanning divisions, states & materials.
Home Depot needed materials for a complex, multi-dimensional project, including everything from signage to brochures, name badges and golf course flags. This project consisted of 11 events taking place across the country during a span of 8 months. Each wave required personalized materials based on the city, participants, vendors & sponsors.

​
I researched & implemented a centralized communications system so all teams could have their own internal as well
as an overall communications portal
to share information.
[ SKILLS ]
COMMUNICATION
Working with multiple teams, contacts, departments & vendors for each wave, including pre-event, during the event & post event materials.
MULTI TASKING
Each event was a stand-alone affair with different dates, cities, venues, pieces, participants, sponsors & contact person or group.
on an average day...
I often found myself presenting the booklet to one group while designing the signage for another & making sure the golf tee flags had arrived safely on-site for a
third group.
ATTENTION TO DETAIL
Each Department got their own booklet including; tables of sponsor information, an outline of their event using photography pertinent to their department only.
[ OUTCOMES ]
11 NEW HOMES CONSTRUCTED
FOR WOUNDED VETERANS
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
IN CHARITABLE DONATIONS
​
A hugely successful series of high-visibility
events spanning months, cities, departments
& sponsorships.
