"We began our relationship with Powered by Professionals at a fortuitous time; we had just begun planning our 10th Anniversary celebration, we welcomed a new Executive Director, and we were looking to ramp up our staff. Our hope to hold an in-person anniversary celebration was ultimately thwarted by the pandemic, but PBP proactively planned both in-person and virtual events, and course corrected late in the game. PBP's organizational prowess helped by tracking all pledges, organizing and setting up a robust silent auction, and managing the virtual program buildout while ultimately supporting the largest fundraiser we have ever had. We look forward to continuing our partnership with PBP in 2022." - Tony Hillery, Harlem Grown, Founder & CEO
