Nonprofit fundraisers are a great way to bring people together for a common cause, and when successful, they can make an impact on the lives of those in need. That was certainly the case at Dementia Together’s Joy on the Journey fundraising event that My Big Day Marketing & Events had the pleasure of planning last week. The numbers from this event are proof of its success:
Throughout the evening, guests heard from Dementia Together’s Executive Director and other supporters. They heard stories that were both heart-warming and inspiring, and it was clear that the work being done by this amazing organization is truly making a difference in people’s lives. My Big Day Marketing & Events was honored to be a planning partner for such an important and spectacular event! From concept to execution, this event took over 300 planning hours to pull off. Community is an important pillar in all of the work that My Big Day does, and this event was a perfect example of how community and coming together for a common cause can be inspiring and produce good for many!

We celebrate 60 years since Hewlett Packard opened a massive campus in Loveland, catapulting the city into a technological hub and city known for innovation! The building that put Loveland on the tech map sat dormant for a while after HP vacated. Today, the building has new owners and a fresh start! Known as Forge Campus, it is once again THE BUZZ of the city! MBD Marketing & Events was prospected a number of months ago by a steering committee for the initiative called, Live Loveland, to consider helping to plan a large scale event. Little did we know what we were getting ourselves into. An incredible number of members of the community from all different backgrounds came together to give their input on what they wanted this celebration to look like. We quickly came up with a name that described what the event was for, honored the past, and celebrated the future. With 15 events rolled into 1 massive event, the Forge Campus was celebrated, open for tours and HOPPING! Below are all of the major activities and features offered:
We are very proud of the hard work we put into this major tribute to innovation in Loveland, CO. It took hundreds of vendors, volunteers and event crew members to make magic happen --- and it did! “60 Years Celebrating Seeds of Innovation” Saturday, October 8, 2022 9am – 1pm Forge Campus: 815 14th St SW, Loveland, CO 80537 Website: https://www.liveloveland.org/60-years-celebrating-seeds-of-innovation/ Making Business Personal

High temperatures couldn’t put a damper on The Family Center-La Familia’s Fiesta Celebration! Supporters, staff, and community members joined together for a fabulous celebration at The Lyric that included hand mixed Margaritas, a tasty Nacho Bar, a silent auction bursting with items and activities, and fun Salsa Music provided by the Manabi Latin Band! Guests visited with one another on The Lyric’s outdoor theater grounds while listening to the festive tunes. They strolled through the silent auction, and many took advantage of purchasing Bird Cage tickets. The Family Center’s Annual Birdcage was full of thousands of dollars in gift cards and items, and one lucky winner’s ticket matched the padlock. A short program highlighted the work that The Family Center does each day, strengthening families and providing quality early childhood childcare and education. It also honored a long-time volunteer and supporter, Grandma Theresa. This important event and fundraiser helped to raise over $37,000 for The Family Center-La Familia’s programs and daily expenses. None of this would be possible without the support of the event’s hosts, sponsors, and generous donors. The Family Center-La Familia would like to thank event sponsors:
We had a wonderful time at the 2022 Meals on 4th event! We are so grateful for all of the sponsors, community partners, volunteers, attendees, and donors! You matter! You make a difference! Our friends at Meals on Wheels of Loveland and Berthoud hit their fundraising goal! We are proud to help put this event on. It is a heavy lift with over 100 people working in the background to make this happen. Great people - great cause! Thank you Lauren Leary for the photos. Small Business. Big Impact.

Here are some essential tips for finding and keeping event sponsors for your small company or nonprofit. What are event sponsors? Sponsors are companies, organizations, or individuals who fund an event in exchange for publicity, so that proceeds from the event can go to the host organization. Sponsors typically provide monetary funds, but may also offer in-kind donations of goods, promotional sponsorships through platforms like websites or social media, or advertising sponsorships. How do I find event sponsors? When searching for potential event sponsors, consider organizations that have something in common with your own, such as a mission, values, and/or an audience. Your chances of securing a potential sponsor are much greater if there is reason for them to be interested in your event, such as a professed interest in your company’s goals and beliefs or potential for the sponsor to market themselves to their desired audience. You can also look at a company’s website, social media pages, and news articles to see if they’ve sponsored similar events in the past. When sourcing sponsors, consider:
How do I secure event sponsors? Event planners often provide potential sponsors with a sponsorship packet – a digital or printed pamphlet that breaks down the benefits a sponsor receives based on the amount of funding they provide. A sponsorship packet should include details about audience demographics, projected or past attendance numbers, vendor names, any data or analytics you can provide about your organization’s reach on individual platforms, and testimonials from past sponsors. For nonprofits, testimonials from beneficiaries can be very appealing to potential sponsors. Elements that can help with emotional appeal for both small businesses and nonprofits include your startup story, inspiration behind your organization, your mission statement, and ways your organization benefits the local community. Typical sponsorship benefits include brand exposure, audience engagement, and improved reputation for the sponsoring organization. A sponsorship packet outlines levels of sponsorship (for example, Silver, Gold, Platinum) and corresponding publicity benefits. What are some common event sponsor benefits?
What are some creative event sponsor benefits? Make your sponsorship packet stand out by offering these unique event sponsor benefits:
