Jeremy Bloom's Wish of a Lifetime is a non-profit organization enriching the lives of low income seniors. This foundation was named in living honor of Donna Wheeler, Jeremy's grandmother, who has been a constant inspiration to him as an athlete and an individual. Most elderly men and women have one thing in their life that they have always wanted to do or experience. Because most of their income and/or life savings is spent on necessary living expenses and medical bills, they often miss the opportunity to fulfill these dreams. Through Jeremy Bloom's Wish of a Lifetime, and your support, we will make those wishes come true.
Cost: $125 per ticket

BMA Breakfast Roundtable: More Than Meets The Eye — The Power of Video Marketing
Citizen Pictures, 2800 N. Speer Blvd, Denver, 80211
Join BMA on THURSDAY, April 30, as we continue our popular breakfast roundtable series.
This month's topic: More Than Meets The Eye — The Power of Video Marketing is facilitated by BMA member Lindsey Larson of Citizen Pictures.
Videos aren't just for corporate storytelling or presentations anymore: videos can connect you to your customer in ways traditional marketing cannot. Videos evoke emotion, attention and action.
Video marketing is multi-faceted and multi-purpose. Learn about the many ways businesses can support sales and marketing efforts with video.
Discuss how to think long-term about video marketing objectives that will result in multi-purpose, long-term marketing tools for your company.
About our facilitators: Lindsey Larson first worked with Citizen Pictures as a corporate client. But now that she's jumped to "the other side of the table," she can relate well with client needs and wants. Lindsey will be hosting the roundtable with Robin Bond. Robin owned her own B2B video production house for eight years, Bond Video Arts. She now heads Citizen Pictures' corporate and commercial projects as Executive Producer.
Roundtables are limited to the first 20 participants, and reservations are required, so register today!
$10 members, $25 nonmembers (includes breakfast)

'ONE DEGREE OF SEPARATION' A FUNDRAISER, A CAUSE, A HOPE
website: www.prissam.net
'one degree of separation' is about who you know that may need hope, support, motivation and a little inspiration. It's about 'looking at life in a different perspective'. It's about keeping the pluses positive; changing the minuses into pluses; turning the obstacles into opportunities and the plain glass into a prism. We all know someone: it may be a family member, a friend, a neighbor, a colleague or even ourselves.
The Perspective Lightcatchers are for anyone that is a Survivor or Supporter of any cause, and we all are. The symbolic Lightcatchers are $25.00 each - but get both for $45.00 - - keep one, give one as a gift or give both as gifts.
Perspective Lightcatchers are gifts that will keep on giving as 20% of sale will be donated to the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center (at Johns Hopkins Hospital) to help provide the needed funds for researching a cure. One cure can be what it takes to find many cures. Be the one to help. A FUNDRAISER, A CAUSE, A HOPE that is priceless. PAY IT FORWARD!
