What are the keys to getting your board fully engaged in an annual gala or signature fundraising event?
Today, I talk with Sarah Gilbreath, Central Texas Board Chair for Imagine A Way, to talk about their upcoming annual Imagine A Way Gala: Mad Money for A Mission.
Imagine A Way provides critical services for families who have children living with autism. Since its founding in 2007, the organization has helped many families ease the financial burden of the care required for children who have autism. Founded in Austin, the organization also has a second successful chapter in Houston.
In this episode, Sarah discusses a wide range of topics including tips on leveraging your board to find an effective chair for your gala or signature fundraising event, things to consider when considering opening a chapter in another market, how to keep your audience engaged throughout the entire night at your gala, and so much more.

The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
