Pickie Pie's Pro-Bono Projects

At Pickie Pie, we believe we've been blessed with talent and good fortune. That's why we also believe in giving back to our community where possible and to causes we hold near and dear by taking on several pro-bono projects a year. Right now, we're helping the New Milestones Foundation get press and promotion
for their Bridge the Gap event to be held on November 7, 2011 at the Bob Bullock Museum. The event features Carrie Fisher, of Star Wars fame, as guest speaker.

Taking advantage of the Star Wars tie, New Milestones has teamed up with Blo Blow Dry Bar and Evie Evan for an online Princess Leia look-a-like contest. For a $20 dollar donation, anyone can get a Princess Leia updo, their makeup done and their photo submitted for the contest. All proceeds go to New Milestones. The winner gets dinner with Carrie Fisher. Anyone in the Universe can enter by clicking here and sending your digital photo to austinprincessleia@gmail.com.

We've secured two television segments, one on KVUE Midday and one on KEYE's We Are Austin 4pm program. We'll have models, both human and canine as anyone can enter the contest, Star Wars props, a spokesperson and a surprise or two. Let's just say some of the other Star Wars characters might show up.

Our Philosophy

"Life isn't about finding yourself. It's about creating yourself."

That's something we truly believe at Pickie Pie Productions.

It's an approach we take personally and professionally. It's also always on our mind as we help clients take their business to the next level. We know entrepreneurs start with a dream to do something beyond the average and to control their own destiny. Entrepreneurs are inherently people who are not content with just clocking in at a job everyday. They both live and love what they do. At Pickie Pie, we take the passion our clients have for their businesses, help them craft their message and spread the word about it as great people, products and services shouldn't be kept a secret. They should be shouted out and shared with everyone.
