TO RAISE MONEY FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION
TO BRING AWARENESS TO AN ISSUE
TO COLLABORATE WITH COMMUNITY
TO MOBILIZE VOLUNTEERS
TO CELEBRATE MILESTONES AND ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION
TO THANK THE COMMUNITY FOR THEIR HELP
TO KICK OFF A CAMPAIGN
KEEP IT GREEN
SOME AGENCIES MAY HAVE A “GREEN” THEME WHICH IS NOT ONLY ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY BUT KEEPS THE COST DOWN
SEND INVITATIONS BY EMAIL
SOMETIMES RENTING REAL CHINA AND SILVERWARE IS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN PAPER PRODUCTS
BUFFET SERVICE IS LESS COSTLY AND CAN INCLUDE LOCAL AND HOMEGROWN FOODS
THINKING GREEN CAN BE A THEME
DEVELOP A REALISTIC BUDGET
DEVELOP A BUDGET WITH TWO COLUMNS
ESTIMATE EXPENSES IN ONE COLUMN
PROJECT YOUR ANTICIPATED REVENUE FROM THE EVENT IN THE OTHER
SUBTRACK THE EXPENSE COLUMN FROM THE REVENUE COLUMN
THIS WILL LEAVE YOU WITH THE PROJECTED PROFIT FOR THE EVENT
FUNDRAISING BUDGET
PLAN AND PACE EVENT
DEVELOP A TIMELINE OF THE ACTIVITES WITH A DATE OF WHEN WORK SHOULD BE COMPLETED
MAKE SURE TO ASSIGN RESPONSIBILITY TO A PERSON SO THE WORK GETS DONE
DEVELOP THE LIST OF COMMITTEES YOU WILL NEED
CREATE A LIST OF LEADERS AND THEIR COMMITTEES
COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY TO THE SUCCESS OF THE EVENT
DEVELOP OPPORTUNITIES FOR SPONSORS FOR THE EVENT
RISKS AND LIABILITIES
MAKE SURE RISKS ARE CONSIDERED – IS EXTRA INSURANCE NEEDED, SECURITY NEED TO BE HIRED, MEDICAL STAFF ON HAND FOR EMERGENCIES?
COMPLETE PERMITS
FOLLOW LAWS FOR EVENTS
MAKE SURE SAFETY IS CONSIDERED
