The Global Awareness Project is a nonprofit organization that helps provide marketing and advertising services to other nonprofits through multimedia art.Their goal is to assist with the marketing and promotion of other non-profit agencies through multimedia art, photojournalism and documentary work. They are creating a network of forward thinking artisans and individuals who understand the need and benefit to reach out and unite a community.
More than 1,000 people attended the "Jewels of the South" weekend-long festival, October 18 and 19, said Carl Kerridge co-founder of the Global Awareness Project, who organized the event at the Cooper House.
