You Got Team AMN to LA!

TODAY IS THE DAY!

**Thank you SO much to everyone who helped me meet, and pass, my goal of $800. Rather you supported financially or morally, I am so thankful for your investment in my education.

24 days ago, I set my goal to raise $800, by donation only, for an educational business trip with my team in Innovative Public Relations.

Today, I flew into LAX with $996.99.
(**All funds not used during this trip will be donated to save the graduate position in IPR.**)

My team and I have been awake for 14 hours and it’s only 2 p.m. (PT). In the amount of time we have been in California, we have met with account executives at Ogilvy, grabbed lunch with the COO of SAM Preccelerator Program and took a detour to ride the Santa Monica ferris wheel. The day is only halfway over and we’ve only scratched the surface of what LA has to offer us.

If you’d like to keep up with Team AMN on this crazy ride, follow Innovative Public Relations’ Twitter handle: @UCMInnovativePR

Thank you, again, for all of your support. I can’t believe this is happening.

Help Get Team AMN to LA!: Meet the “N”

I only need $70 to reach my goal of $800 before Thursday. Please check out my role in Team AMN this week and help me call this campaign a success by clicking here.

My name is Andrea Buzek, but most people know me as Nickey. I make up the “N” in Team AMN. I manage team projects by keeping track of status reports, creating project frameworks and assuring all of our tactics relate to set objectives.

I am pursing a bachelors in public relations with a minor in business administration. This is my first semester with Innovative PR, where I work as an account specialist. Skills I bring to IPR were acquired through my involvement in the National Society of Leadership and Success and Public Relations Student Society of America. I continue to work on my branding efforts through my involvement as a student ambassador for UCM. I plan to gain experience in the agency sector of PR before perusing a position as a corporate in-house public relations manager.

The skills IPR has given me are invaluable. The projects we complete don’t just contribute to our clients’ goals, but our personal ones. I plan to use the knowledge I’ve gained this semester in my portfolios and future public relations endeavors. Opportunities, like this, are why I became a public relations professional. It’s exciting. It’s ever changing, and it’s something that pays me for doing things I love.

If you would like to be the difference in my Help Get Team AMN to LA campaign, please donate here. I only need $70 to label this a success.

This is possible. This is attainable. This is happening.
