What are the keys to success in starting a foundation that honors a departed loved one?
Today, I talk with Jamie Broach Byrd, Founder of The Broach Foundation For Brain Cancer Research and Deanna Kotrla, Executive Director of the organization to talk about the 13th annual Stand Up For Brain Cancer Gala.
The Broach Foundation was started in honor of Jamie's late husband, James Broach, who succumbed to grade IV astrocytoma also known gliblastoma in 2013. The foundation was started to fund research, to advance the prevention, treatment, and cure for brain cancer.
In this episode, Jamie and Deanna discuss a wide range of topics steps to take when considering establishing a foundation in honor of a lost loved one, how the organization leverages the board to drive donors and sponsors to your event, and tips on getting celebrities and high-profile individuals to headline your signature fundraising event. This is one episode you will not want to miss.
