Engage. Inspire. Thrive. Are the three words Jesse stands by.
“My goal is to engage your guests by providing an experience for them to feel excited and passionate to give, It’s not only about showing up and auctioning items, it’s about bringing laughter, excitement, joy for those donors to give with a joyful heart and make it a time for them to remember.
People who are entertained and inspired tend to be more engaged, more confident, and more motivated to give to what they are supporting.
