The Challenge
High-Stakes Philanthropy: One805LIVE! is a star-studded oceanside benefit concert dedicated to raising critical funds for Santa Barbara County first responders.

The Strategy

• Sponsor Curation: Spearheaded the effort to secure partners who were an "appropriate fit" for a luxury, mission-driven festival environment.

• Brand Alignment: Ensured sponsor presence enhanced—rather than distracted from—the attendee experience by aligning brand values with philanthropic goals.

 

The Execution

Boots-on-the-Ground Management: Managed unique requirements for world-class talent and high-profile attendees, including Trisha Yearwood, Good Charlotte, and Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

• Logistics & Sponsor Management: Ensured seamless transitions for complex transitions including aircraft flyover in between sets.

• Security & Celebrity Liaison: Managed requirements for A-list attendees and Partners within a private estate setting.

• Crisis Management: Served as the lead for real-time troubleshooting and cross-functional communications.
