Fundraiser Speech

Anthony Ellison

An ESL speaker needed a Fundraiser speech about her experience. This speech raised $225,000 (a record) for refugees needing legal assistance in Texas. It was her first public speaker performance...and it was in front of 300 wealthy Texas Methodists eating a $2,000 dinner.
I spent 4 days crafting this within her voice and story, and then coaching her through the performance towards one goal: "Guilt Them Into Giving"
I have 15 years experience teaching corporate improvisational workshops as well as one on one sessions. I also have an MFA in Playwriting, so I know how to tell a story and direct folks to perform it.
This is a little snippet of the beginning.
