The mission of MBD Marketing and Events is to bring highly curated and collaborative events and business strategies to Northern Colorado. We support businesses and individuals in the growth of their ideas, events, and marketing strategies. Every year, we support a number of non-profits doing BIG things in our community. Our 3 areas of focus are Communication, Experiences and Community. In November and December you can see how important our 3rd area of focus is to our entire team. Being influencers in the area of charitable giving and making a difference is a top priority for us as humans (the MBD team). Below are some non-profits in Northern Colorado we encourage you to support.  Partners (Youth Mentoring) The need is real--youth are facing unprecedented mental health challenges and lack connection. Partners creates meaningful relationships and supportive community through mentoring and prevention education programs.

This work is done with an explicit vision of creating a community in which all families are safe, supported, and thriving.

LINK  Dementia Together At Dementia Together, we cultivate joy while building stronger connections – for those living with dementia, their care partners, and the community. We offer our family/care partner education and life enrichment programming at no charge to participants so that cost is never a barrier to connection and support. Please consider donating to their end of year campaign, FRIENDS GIVE HOPE. LINK  No DUI Larimer No DUI Larimer is a campaign encouraging the public to “Make the Call” to end impaired driving in our community. Make the Call to get a safe ride home; Make the Call about whether you should get behind the wheel, and Make the Call to report suspected impaired drivers. Driving under the influence IS an emergency--please call 911 if you see someone that you suspect is driving impaired. Larimer County is ranked #4 of all counties in Colorado with highest number of DUIs. Please consider supporting our efforts in educating the public about DUIs and supporting our youth in healthy decision making.

About Habitat for Humanity of the St. Vrain Habitat for Humanity of the St. Vrain Valley (St. Vrain Habitat) is dedicated to providing decent, affordable homeownership for working families in the St. Vrain Valley and Estes Valley School Districts. Established in 1988, Habitat's mission is 'Seeking to put God's love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.' At Habitat, our vision is a world where everyone has a decent, affordable place to live. Work That Matters For 34+ years, St. Vrain Habitat has partnered with families in our community to help them achieve the dream of owning a home. One in 7 Colorado families pays more than half their income on housing. Every month families are forced to make tough decisions about what they can afford: rent, food, child care, transportation, or health care. All Habitat homeowners complete a rigorous application process where they demonstrate a clear need for housing, the ability to pay a mortgage, and a willingness to partner through 'sweat equity' hours and preparedness classes. Through Habitat, families achieve strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. The long-term impacts of homeownership include: enhanced wellbeing, improved educational outcomes, improved health, safer neighborhoods, increased safety, and reduced need for public assistance.

So of course, when Pamela and Lane Everitt reached out to see if we could assist them with a private fundraiser for their favorite charity, we said YES! "Furry Tacos" is the fun name they came up with. Angry Hippie served up delicious tacos, On the Rocks served as our mobile bar with the help of our friends at Wilbur's Total Beverage. Primary Event Rentals brought in beautiful farm tables, sitting areas and high-top tables for our guests. And what event would be complete without furry animal face painting, a photo wall and games for all?!?! Animal Friends Alliance is in a SAVING PETS CHALLENGE right now through the end of September.

Until next year, keep swinging NoCo!   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?

It's what we do best! We met our new friends at DBC Irrigation in 2021 when everyone what facing similar pandemic problems with events. We created a HUGE backpack fundraiser for A Precious Child (501c3) that was an engaging team-building activity. And we helped to provide hundreds of students with backpacks for the 21-22 school year, while giving the DBC staff a unique team building activity! DBC called again and asked us to create a unique Spring luncheon event that was FUN, CREATIVE, ENGAGING and would help they to raise money while employees have a great time. We created a musically delightful and silly day at the Denver Museum of Art. All smiles - all day --- and we were able to donate $20,000 to 3 local charities who are supporting the families affected by the Marshall Fire! Colorado Pet Pantry + Sister Carmen Community Center + Future Arts Foundation of Colorado are the charities that received this incredible support!    Thank you to Dick Knapp Photography for capturing the fun, HOWE Eventful for the Music Trivia and the Denver Museum of Art for hosting us! Small Business. Big Impact.
