$10,000 Diamonds Over Georgia

In Atlanta, Diamonds Over Georgia raised over $10,000 for THON 2008 between the event, live auction, and corporate sponsorship from Brill Financial (Mass Mutual). Diamonds Over Georgia was held at the 1420 Room on February 1st. Over 110 people came out and enjoyed themselves, dancing the night away. Our large auction items were a donated Yuengling neon light from Yuengling and a custom framed Joe Paterno limited edition signed print for $2500. In addition, we announced the intent to donate 20 percent of the proceeds in 2009 to University of Georgia's Dance Marathon sponsoring children's Healthcare of Atlanta with the other 80 percent still slated for THON. All in all, it was a huge success!
