Love One International is a nonprofit committed to providing life-saving medical care, family preservation and the love of Jesus to children in Uganda. For five years, Local Event Co.’s lead designer, Lacey, has had the privilege of planning and designing their annual auction dinner and concert alongside their incredible team. The evening features both silent and live auctions, with exciting items like trips to Africa, luxury vacations, and exclusive tour experiences hosted by Thomas Rhett and his wife Lauren. The night builds to a powerful message from Love+ One’s founder, Suzanne Mayernick, and Lauren Akins, followed by a thrilling live auction and a private concert by Thomas Rhett and friends. This event not only raises crucial funds but also shines a spotlight on the organization’s impactful work.
