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! |
