Behind the Scenes
Events Planner Sean O’Keefe says, “I am a horseman and
a part of an incredible community of generous and gifted
people. The EAF represents to me a gathering of like minded,
good-hearted people who care for each other and those within
their own personal community who are less fortunate than
others. The mandate of the organization speaks in clarity
and in volumes...to care for those in the horse community
suffering from catastrophic illness or injury...
“The Equestrian Aid Foundation walks the talk!”
Sean O’Keefe Events is an Atlanta based full service
event planning and design business with a focus on creating
and building nonprofit signature charity events. These
signature events, created to increase a nonprofit’s profile
and expand their donor base within our community, have
included: The Child Development Association’s Down Home
Derby; Georgia Ovarian Cancer Alliance’s Shaken, Not
Stirred Gala, Equestrian Aid Foundation’s Tetrathlon, YES! -
Atlanta’s Night of Lights and Fall Fiesta Atlanta in Support of
Cooperative for Education.
It is through the generosity of our charity partners that we
have been able to be a part of a movement that has seen
over $1,000,000 raised for charity in the Southeastern United
States since May 2010.
Volunteers Needed
The Equestrian Aid Foundation is looking for amazing
volunteers for the weekend of the Tetrathlon to assist in the
build out and execution of the event. Sean O’Keefe Events
will need about 40 people in dedicated positions at the
Tetrathlon so that we can all have a great time. There will
be people needed to help in every aspect of the event and
anyone is welcome to volunteer. Come and help the EAF
and be a part of what will be the most exciting fundraising
event in 2012.
If you are interested or have questions about volunteering
please email caryn@seanokeefeevents. It is a great way
to be apart of the event, help out a great cause and see the
show!
