I had the pleasure of working with Futures & Options at their first annual Dream Big gala event at Stone Rose Lounge in the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle. Event honorees included William Thompson, Jr., Andrew Rasiej and Resham Saujani. The evening included dinner, a silent auction (I donated a family photo session!) and a raffle. I can't believe it but I actually won a raffle prize - a lovely gold & crystal necklace! I'm actually wearing it today! It was a great event and guests included patrons, sponsors and Futures & Options alumnus. I had the pleasure of speaking with several former F&O interns now successful college graduates and working in New York City. Cheers and it is always a pleasure working with you! I can't wait to see your annual report!!!
Of course we all want to lower our impact on the environment and work to lower our carbon footprint. Working digitally allows us to eliminate the thousands of gallons of developer and other chemicals used in the developing and printing processes. Camera batteries are all rechargeable as are the batteries and battery packs we use in our lighting equipment meaning we do not have to fill landfills with toxic batteries each week. We recycle as much as we can and try to work with local vendors and small businesses. We also offer images on CD to cut down on paper usage. Hey - I even bike to work when I can! Every little bit helps.
I am adding a list of vendors that provide eco-friendly services. Please email me if you know of a vendor that could be added!
