Event Concept & Plan

Project details

What we need
  • 3-5 one hour calls with an events professional covering topics like concept, general structure, logistics, and target attendees
  • A written summary of topics discussed, including event concept and theme, general plan, estimated budget (optional), and articulated goals (feel free to use this template as a starting point)
  • Note: This project does not include on-site event coordination or support on the day of the event
Additional details

We have a Winter Warming Ways event we have each year. It's an auction and we're trying to make it more elevated and closer to a gala but have never done a higher end event before.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a 25th anniversary theme, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have years of past experience, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,002 , allowing us to expand needed programing for families.

We need to leverage our current major donors and grow our giving to help more families as well as refine our brand.

Our mission

Our mission is to form relationships with families at risk of or experiencing homelessness by providing shelter, meals, and a spectrum of supportive services as they obtain permanent stability.

What we do

We have several programs aimed at keeping & getting families into stable housing. Our Rapid Resolution program focuses on diverting families from homelessness through relocation, transportation or food cards, paying bills & other financial assistance. Every month we give out funds for rental assistance to keep families housed. Our Case Management, (Bridge) transitional housing, and Shelter program all focus on getting families into more stable housing through connection to resources, housing first initiatives, and helping families through a holistic approach. Our small team has high success rates because of this approach.
