We have been specializing in event planning and fundraising since 2000.
Our founder, Tracey Costikyan, began her marketing and advertising career in 1988, working as an Account Manager with a national advertising firm based in Greenwich, Connecticut. Later she moved into the direct marketing fields, specializing in direct marketing for national Fortune 500 companies. During that time she worked on advertising and marketing campaigns for such notable organizations as the NFL, Sony, Nestle and Sears, in addition to many other national and local corporations. Combining these skills, she later focused on event planning and fundraising, working with private nonprofit organizations and schools. Throughout her fundraising and event planning experience, she has assisted organizations in raising over one million dollars. Combining her marketing and advertising experience along with her fundraising experience has given Tracey the competitive and knowledgeable edge in planning successful events. Her commitment and dedication, as well as her ability to work with many different individuals in reaching the same goal has given her a reputation as a well-respected, successful and personable individual.
