Host a House Party

Host a party with a purpose! House parties are a fun and effective way to introduce others to CWEF and share personal stories about how education has transformed lives.

Take a Look

House parties and events provide a great way to raise awareness about the work we do, increase the Foundation’s visibility and solicit ongoing financial support to help us reach that $2 million goal. Volunteering to host allows guests to see old friends, meet new people, and build lasting relationships over food and drinks while providing a supporting atmosphere to raise funds for CWEF’s important work.

The GOALS of the events are to:

• Increase awareness and educate guests about CWEF

• Raise funds to support the continuation of our mission

• Create an environment for you and your guests to enjoy themselves

Invitations set the tone for the party, so look at them as an extension of the theme and environment you want to create.

STYLE - Paper or Email

CONTENT

Be sure that invitations specify that this is a fundraising event.
Indicate at what time the presentation will take place to ensure that as many people as possible are in attendance for this portion of the program.
Invite your guests to bring their checkbooks!
Include a reply envelope or link to a contribution page. This encourages those who are unable to attend to donate.
Be sure to mention that all donations are tax deductible (CWEF can provide gift envelopes.)

RESPONSE

Have one point of contact - Use one email address and phone number, ensuring multiple ways for guests to RSVP. A week before the party, you should remind those guests who have not already sent an RSVP about the party.
