Events are vital to Non Profits. Some might say, a ‘necessary evil’. You need them to raise critical funds, enlist community support, and to make some serious noise for your mission. Your event can represent the most important and powerful public hour of your fundraising year.
With over 20 years of work experience on Development Teams, we understand your challenges. And we have the proven track record to help you meet them.
At Spotlight, we specialize in helping non-profits in Puget Sound to realize their dream events, to deepen community engagement in their vision, and to surpass fundraising and friend-raising goals. Our experience in Development makes working with your leadership, board members, staff, donors, volunteers and VIPs a natural fit.
A great event is a theatrical experience for your guests. We know how to work with speakers, emcees, performers, lighting, sound, video, voiceover and story messaging to orchestrate your event. We know what moves an audience, how to build a laugh or a tear, and how to land the ask. This unique expertise and talent brings the understanding of a stage manager, director, choreographer and conductor to your events team.
For non-profits we’ve produced successful events for 10 to over 1,000 guests including:
- Gala Fundraisers: Business community luncheons to glamorous galas (in person and virtual)
- Live Streamed Community Forums: From the Convention Center to fully Virtual
- Capital Campaign Events: Major donor house parties, groundbreakings, grand openings
- Board and Employee Gatherings & Annual Meetings
- Golf Classic Fundraisers: Full carts and course full of happy golfers raising money for kids!
- Family Music and Movie Nights
- Rock-n-Roll Fundraising Concerts
- Holiday Open Houses
- Volunteer/Staff/Donor/VIP Recognition Banquets
Our job? We shine the light on the great work you do, share your story, articulate your mission, and build a memorable event that does everything you want it to, and then some. Give us a call and let’s see how we can set the stage for your success.
