JDRF does about 82 events per year, raising over $70 Million annually.

Overall, JDRF has raised over $1 BILLION at their galas since they started keeping records in 1994.

As Lynn will tell you, successful auctions require a ton of work and expertise.

Committee chairs and legions of volunteers spend the better part of a year procuring donated items, promoting the event, planning logistics and more. With so many steps that can be mishandled or overlooked, experience is key to unlocking an auction's full revenue potential.

Imagine being able to model your charity gala after a successful event, knowing what opportunities to take and what mistakes to avoid.

Winspire is teaming up with Lynn Page, National Director of Signature Events at JDRF, for a lively 1-hour webinar all about putting on a successful fundraising event. She will share hard-earned knowledge of best practices, including tips and tricks to:

Pre-Event Communication
Event Sponsorship Packages
Improve the Guest Experience
Planning the Auction Timeline
Post-Event Follow up 60, 90 and 180 days after
Fit events into your overall fundraising strategy

This webinar will be chock-full of practical tips to benefit auction planning newbies and seasoned pros alike. We hope you'll join us!

If you can't make it but are still interested in the content, register anyway and we will send a recording of the webinar after it's over.
