2018 Year In Review

01 Jan 2018 Year In Review

Posted at 14:27h in The Scoop by FMP Productions

As I reflect on 2018, my heart is filled with so much gratitude. I started a dream 8 years ago with hopes that FMP Productions could generate new and creative ways to make a difference in people’s lives and as 2018 comes to a close I’m grateful to say that we had our most successful year yet. Everyone measures success differently; my measurement stick is how many people found just a touch of happiness from the work that we do. That happiness could be receiving a generous donation, it could be the feeling of satisfaction by providing a donation, it could be getting a PR at one of our road races, it could be meeting a favorite athlete, it could be getting their best golf score, it could be seeing old friends, it could be sharing a laugh, it could be the love you feel when you help someone in need and the list goes on and on. How lucky am I that I get to live this unbelievable dream every day!!!!

I have so much gratitude for these abilities. I’m grateful to my clients for having faith in us to fulfill their missions. I’m grateful to all of you who attend our events or donate to our causes, we would be nothing without your dedication and generosity. Most importantly, I’m grateful to my hard-working team at FMP. Adam, Jared, Taylor, Chris and Meagan, along with all of our interns, helpers and volunteers, you are all amazing and the world is a better place because of all of you.

The Numbers

The true testament to the growth that FMP has had is in actual numbers. To be honest, some of them scare me and they are all very hard for me to believe but they are the truth, I’m not sure where we get the time to do it all. I’m humbled to say that in 2018, we worked with 16 incredible clients with such dedicated board members, we produced 51 events that were attended by 1,019,635 people. The number, that for years have always brought tears to my eyes and my mom’s too is that in 2018 we assisted in generating $4,107,998 to the charities that we work with. That brings our 8-year total to $16,851,215 generated for all the charities we have had the pleasure to help. That doesn’t happen alone and I’m so grateful for all the love, guidance and support we have been give along the way.
