Gem Event Participated In: Fundraiser – Young Professional Networking Mixer
” The mixer was good event. I got a chance to hear the stores of entrepreneurs and a opportunity to mingle with other young professionals in the area. This was also my first time getting to meet Amanda face to face. The event was well organized and everyone involved seems friendly, outgoing and personable.”
Experience at WNBA game:
“Getting the opportunity to see the opening Liberty game at Prudential Center was so exciting. It was my first opportunity to see them live since the WBNA initially started several years ago. The game also provide me time to spend with my mother who is a huge fan of the Liberty and the League as well. She was extremely joyous to attend the game and wants to go to others. Thanks once again to The GEM Project and Mentoring USA for providing this opportunity. ”
