FUNDRAISER!

 
Planners Network has funds available to help local chapters (and folks who want to start chapters) hold panel discussions, forums, walking tours, networking socials and other events designed to build and grow the network.

In the months leading up to the conference, this is the perfect opportunity to both grow the network, and help send chapter members to New Orleans, by turning a chapter event into a fundraiser.

Here’s how it works:
 
1. Develop a simple proposal for an event. Proposal guidelines and a form are available online at
www.plannersnetwork.org/chapters.  Please identify the fundraising mechanism (i.e. admission fee, raffle, donations for food/drink, etc.) in your proposal. Fundraising events must take place before May 15, 2007. More information is also available at chapters@plannersnetwork.org
 
2. Send a proposal for the event to chapters@plannersnetwork.org. PN can consider proposals for up to US$500, but proposals in the US$100-300 range are more likely to be funded.
 
3. Hold the event.
 
4. Take the proceeds from the event, and apply them to registrations at the conference. Your local group can apply the proceeds in a variety of ways:

Fund full or partial registrations for your local chapter —you decide who gets the money
Fund partial registrations for everyone who worked on the event
Contribute to the general fund, which will be used to subsidize registration for students, gulf residents and other low income attendees
 
5. Attend the Planners Network Conference in New Orleans with other members of your local chapter!
