YouthAIDS: Events and Interactive:
Qorvis was the agency of record for YouthAIDS, a worldwide, nonprofit initiative dedicated to preventing the spread of HIV/AIDS among the world’s youth. In addition to directing media relations and external outreach for the group, Qorvis provides event management assistance to YouthAIDS surrounding their Annual Gala, the fundraising event that supports YouthAIDS’ life-saving programs.
Honorees at past galas have included Sir Richard Branson, Senator Mary Landrieu, Senator Richard Lugar and Nobel Laureate Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Through the promotion and management efforts of Qorvis, the YouthAIDS Gala set a new fundraising record in 2006.
"Qorvis understands YouthAIDS’ unique marketing-based approach to fighting HIV/AIDS among the world’s youth. With Qorvis providing strategic counsel and public relations expertise, we look forward to reaching new audiences with life-saving messages for our prevention and education programs around the world.”
