Hi Team -
Tomorrow we make history again with Capital Cause by hosting a thrice sold out Young Philanthropists Industry Brunch!! Thank you tremendously for all the hard work that you've put into moving the planning of this event forward. Tomorrow we have 230 people attending our event, to include 25 special guests - Councilwoman Muriel Bowser is one of them and so is the Executive Director of Serve DC. ,Our members and supporters, though are the truest VIPs as their donations truly helped us reach our goal of funding a $10000 grant to a local DC nonprofit working to prevent teen pregnancy. Tomorrow is our chance to show some of DC's key power players and emerging young philanthropists how Capital Cause does business and means business!!
Are you ready!! I sure am!!
Prepare to arrive at Sphinx Club at 8:00am tomorrow.
Come prepared to work (do not dress in your "brunch" clothes) | We will have a separate room for changing
Breakfast will be provided
