On June 23, 2016 Make it Mariko was honored to be a Bronze Sponsor of the β€œTrevor Runway”, especially since The Trevor Project is a nonprofit that is very close to myΒ heart and that of my family.Β I was also excited to get back to myΒ stage production roots toΒ manage the booking, stage performances, and day-of production of the Trevor Runway show.

Event Highlights:

  • Hosted by the San Francisco Ambassadors of The Trevor Project

  • Marketing:Β We namedΒ the event β€˜Trevor Runway’ and came up with the theme #ThisIsMe toencourage our message of being proud to be yourΒ authentic self and help validate the feelings of the young LGBT youth Trevor Project serves. The event name β€˜Trevor Runway’ can be re-purposed every year with a new theme to go along with the SF Pride.Β We also created custom cocktail namesto go along with ourΒ theme.
  • Performances by Misa Malone (Beach Blanket Babylon), Javier Ninja (Vogue dancer, House of Ninja, NYC), and the beautiful ladies of Asia SF & the hit TV docuseries β€œTranscendent”
