For almost 30 years, Lena Kennedy has worked closely with political leaders and her goal for them has never changed: to mount a political, media, or community campaign that is second to none. A key part of her winning strategy includes developing a “grassroots” community-outreach program that enables her clients to connect with influential civic leaders, union representatives, corporate executives, civil-liberties activists, and leading local clergy people.
Most notably Lena was a key member of the National Finance Committee/Obama for America and not only helped organize four successful fundraising events in Pasadena, but, as co-chair of the National Women’s Leadership Initiative, hosted a national conference in Chicago in October, 2008 with Michelle and Barack Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and many other female elected officials from across the country.
