Mission United Plans For Inaugural Stronger Together Showcase

United Way of Tarrant County’s Mission United is leading the work of a group of civic and nonprofit organizations in Arlington who are planning a tribute to veterans and first responders in May 2024. Dubbed The Stronger Together Showcase (STS), this multi-faceted event will educate and engage the community, while elevating several issues related to military service and freedom.  

The Veterans Task Force and Stronger Together Showcase Committee Leaders have teamed with Project Partners for consulting and project management to assure the success of this first-time initiative and the documentation of the leadership, procedures, and work required to produce the results.  This playbook will allow for duplication in future years and in other locations, saving valuable resources and increasing the community impact.   

This project reminds us of a larger version of the Veteran’s Stand Down event we helped Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County execute in 2006, and of work we produced with VETCO in 2015.  Producing the playbook reminds us of work for Strategic Pathways to Student Success work in 2015 and 2016 with the Fort Worth Chamber.  And it’s always fun to work with a returning client that knows our work so well, and who introduces us to new opportunities. 

There are many benefits to being Tarrant County’s partner for good since 1995.  We are grateful!    

Lucky #13 it is!

Lucky #13 it is! 

 June 1 marked the beginning of a thirteenth year of work together with the HEB ISD Education Foundation, and we are proud to be teaming again with this thriving nonprofit whose sole mission is to support HEB ISD’s excellence in education.  We’ve had the pleasure to serve education foundations in Irving, Fort Worth, Plano, Birdville, Marble Falls, and Arlington, but few compare with the outstanding board, community, donor, and district engagement found within the HEB ISD Education Foundation. 

 Through more than a decade of work together, Project Partners has helped provide consistent results through three superintendents, six board chairs, and now thirteen volunteer boards of directors.  How lucky are we? 

Happy New Year!

As we begin this 29th year of business, we thank you for your business, your referrals, your collaboration, your support, and your friendship.   We are so very grateful to keep our dream jobs of advancing community causes with you.  Happy New Year!

FWSCI Mayor’s International Dinner and Global Awards Set for November 3rd

In a fourteenth year to provide support for this iconic annual event hosted by Fort Worth Sister Cities International (FWSCI), Project Partners will help produce the program and show for the Mayor’s International Dinner and Global Awards, set for November 3rd at the Fort Worth Convention Center.  Working with the FWSCI staff and volunteers, we will help prepare and coordinate the detailed program agenda and show-flow for the event, assure all assets for the audiovisual team are in place, and direct the audiovisual team during the event. 

As our eighteenth assignment with FWSCI in total over the last fourteen years, we are thrilled to once again advance the mission of FWSCI, which is to promote Fort Worth globally and enrich our community through international education, exchange, and commerce – creating a more peaceful and prosperous world.  FWSCI’s important work is fueled by President & CEO Mae Ferguson’s incredible work ethic and expertise, an amazing network of corporate and community leaders, and a base of committed donors. 

Tickets to the Mayor’s International Dinner are a benefit to Members Circle of Giving donors at the Ambassador level and above.  If you are already a Members Circle donor, please RSVP here.  Not yet involved?  We recommend you contact FWSCI today!      

The Jordan Elizabeth Harris Foundation is Taking Hope on the Road

To raise awareness of suicide prevention, The Jordan Elizabeth Harris Foundation’s 2022 Light the Trail cycling event will include an 1800 mile journey down the Mississippi valley - from Lake Itasca, Minnesota to New Orleans, Louisiana.  Cyclists plan to blaze a new trail of hope and bring about conversations along the route that will educate, inspire, and encourage discussion.  To help further that effort, the leadership of The Jordan Elizabeth Harris Foundation (JEHF) reached out to Project Partners for help with the coordination of these “Let’s Talk” meet and greet outreach events. 

Using the outreach data collected to date, we will work to make connections in each desired location to identify a champion host and conversation-starter, plus set the logistics for the sites, allowing The JEHF staff and volunteer team to focus on the media relations, fundraising, and ride details.  This will be our third assignment with The JEHF, following the facilitation of a strategic planning board retreat and a staff work session which focused on team strengths and virtual office efficiencies.  

Too many of us have lost loved ones to suicide. The Jordan Elizabeth Harris Foundation provides suicide prevention training and education for children and adults, as well as depression research funding.   Please consider supporting their mission today!
