SHOULD HOUSEWIVES PLAN EVENTS?
Posted by: entreed on: October 29, 2008
Last night I tuned in to watch the 4th episode of Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta. The episode that aired last night was aptly titled “Bring on the Bling”. The episode was centered on housewife Deshawn Snow, wife of professional basketball player Eric Snow. Deshawn is the founder of her self named Deshawn Snow Foundation, an Atlanta based non-profit providing self esteem building for teenage girls. Deshawn, decided to have a fundraiser at her estate that would raise a million dollars. Deshawn put all of her resources together to create a what she thought was going to be a profitable event. She hired an event planner, invited scores of people, received media attention, hired security,READ MORE

I THINK DESHAWN IS A GREAT GIRL WITH A BEAUTIFUL HEART, SHE DID THE BEST SHE COULD DO IN SUCH A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING SHE COULD HAVE DONE IS TO HAVE SOME OF THE GIRLS THAT ARE WHO HER FOUNDATION ARE ABOUT PRESENT AT THE AUCTION.
PEOPLE NEED TO ACTUALLY MEET AND SEE WHO THEY ARE DONATING TO. IT ALLOWS THEM TO SYMPATHIZE WITH THE GIRLS AND FEEL AN OBLIGATION TO HELP. IT IS VITAL.
SHE WILL DO BETTER EACH TIME AS SHE GAINS THE EXPERIENCE, HER HEART IS DEFINITELY IN THE RIGHT PLACE.
I RESPECT YOU DESHAWN FOR YOUR EFFORTS, AND YOUR HUSBAND DEFINITELY LOVES YOU. YOU DESERVE IT TOO.

My homegirl Deshawn had the right intentions but the wrong execution to make this event a success. I am a Certified Event Planner with many years of experience and when I saw the show I knew she was headed for heartache.
Deshawn should not be discouraged but learn from the mistakes and put a more effective fundraising team around her and I am sure she can meet her goals.

Why wouldn’t DeShawn hire an event planner? She hired a cook, a nanny, a gardner, and everything else. These are things she is capable of doing herself, but when it comes to raising a million dollars with no fund raising experience, feels she can do it herself.

I THINK THAT WHAT DESHAWN TRIED TO DO WAS GREAT, HOWEVER AS HER HUSBAND SAID SHE SHOULDN’T LOSE FOCUS THAT BENEFIT WAS ABOUT THE GIRLS, NOT DESHAWN SNOW. OUR GIRLS WILL TAKE FROM THAT IS THAT YOU TRIED. THAT THE MOST IMPORTANT MESSAGE, NOT THAT YOU SPENT 30 GRAND TO MAKE BACK 10
THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SELFLESS
