How can an organization host multiple signature fundraising events throughout the year that engage various segments of its donor community?
Today, I talk with Karissa Condoianis, Senior Vice President of Public Relations for the State Fair of Texas® to talk about the upcoming Texas State Fair and other signature fundraising events the organization hosts throughout the year.
While many know the State Fair of Texas® as a place of family fun that draws over 2 million visitors to the fair each year, it is actually a 501 (c)3 organization. Operating on three core pillars to serve the Texas community: economic development, building capacity, community support, it offers support to many nonprofit organizations to positively impact communities around the state.
In this episode, Karissa discusses a wide range of topics including establishing a process to select nonprofit collaboration partners, how the organization hosts different fundraising events targeted at different segments of their audience, obtaining top musical headliners for events, and so much more. This is one episode you will not want to miss.
