After spending almost every day of the past 3 weeks working on one script (Saturdays saw no work--I can't say the same for Sundays), I can now add fundraising script writer to my resume.
This morning my work held one of our two big annual fundraisers to support our work with the school district. It felt great to see my words go up (and be embellished) by various dignitaries and our emcee, a local TV news reporter.
Nearly every moment went off as planned--and the unscripted moments made the program better. Of course parts could be improved upon. But I am content knowing how much I've learned since starting here in May, and doing work that I love (writing) with incredible people (the fundraising staff here) on an issue that I care very deeply about (public schools).
