City of Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed (Mayor’s Youth Scholarship Program)
Bloomingdale’s Lenox Square
June 11, 2015
After forging a strategic partnership with Bloomingdale’s Lenox Square, The Skky Brand teamed up with the luxury brand to produce the Bloomingdale’s VIP Social, Shopping & Fashion Fundraiser, an official ancillary event of Mayor Kasim Reed’s 18th Annual Mayor’s Cup Golf Tournament. The Skky Brand served as co-creators and event planners for the exclusive shopping extravaganza, hosted by Atlanta’s First Lady Sarah-Elizabeth Reed.
Special invited guests including Bloomingdale’s General Manager Tom Abrams, Eudoxie Bridges (wife of Hip-Hop star/actor Chris “Ludacris” Bridges), LaRonda Sutton (Director, Mayor’s Office of Film & Entertainment), dignitaries and supporters enjoyed an evening of networking, a summer fashion sneak peek, music by DJ Bad, a Dior gift as well complimentary hors d oeuvres and Rodney Strong wine.
The highlight of the evening included an opportunity for attendees to shop throughout the store, with 10% of the total of purchases granted to the Mayor’s Youth Scholarship Program, a funding system designed to provide Atlanta Public School seniors with scholarships for higher education.
