Photography
The Shocker Cheer team and Marching Band completed the Suspenders4Hope Mental Wellness and Preventing Suicide Training to become mental health advocates before the game.
The photos were posted on social media accounts with captions, "Only a couple more days! Everybody is getting ready. Join us for the Black Out game February 11th! 💛

I took the photos but did not the write social copy or post to the accounts.
Print Flyers
I designed a variety of flyer options that were printed and posted around Wichita State University as well as sent to faculty and staff to share with their students. The printed versions had QR codes, while the digital ones linked to suspenders4hope.com upon click.
Strategic Communications
This event notification was email to all 23,000+ Wichita State University students through Shocker Blast a few days before the event.
Promotion for Suspenders4Hope Campaign during the game
Printed Handbills
These quarter shirt handbills were given to guests upon arrival, along with a free Suspenders4Hope shirt.
Jumbo Screen
I designed this screen to promote Suspenders4Hope as a campaign. The QR code leads to a training for further education on Promoting Mental Wellness.
