What should an organization consider when considering a format change for an annual gala or signature fundraising event?
In today's episode, I talk with Tena Faust, Board Co-President of Houston PetSet to talk about the upcoming Fierce & Fabulous Le Brunch.
One of Houston's most beloved and successful annual signature fundraising events for many years, the Houston PetSet. Led for many years by Tena and her sister Tama Lundquist, the organization has decided now is the right time to shift the format of the event from a nighttime gala to a weekend brunch. Proceeds from this highly successful event are disbursed to other Houston animal nonprofit organizations in the form of grants to more widely impact the Houston community.
Tena provides so many wonderful insights on a whole host of topics including tips on finding cause that you are passionate about AND uses your strengths to make maximum impact on your community, ways to draw patrons from multiple parts of your city's philanthropic community, the keys to obtaining great silent and live auction items, businesses, and vendors plus so much more This is one episode you will definitely not want to miss.
