As a fundraising organizer, you need to plan charity events carefully in advance and promote them online and through personal interactions. You also must approach sponsors and coordinate volunteers for events.
There’s a lot to do, so let’s get started!

Why Is Strategic Planning So Important for Creating a Successful Nonprofit Fundraising Event?
A successful fundraising event requires strategic planning. Teams must plan carefully to ensure the event is well-organized and encourages donors to donate. Here are some concepts and factors to consider.
What Is Strategic Planning for Nonprofit Events?
Effective strategic planning requires identifying your goals and determining how to achieve them through your event. Your goal should go beyond “raising funds.” You should consider who you are targeting and the specific objectives you want to achieve.
For example, your goal may be to raise $50,000 for a specific cause. The dollar amount puts donors on target. It adds excitement to the cause.
Let’s say you're just $400 shy of your goal. Donors will be incentivized to reach that goal and provide the necessary funds.
Defining the cause is also essential. For example, an animal shelter may aim to raise money to feed 100 cats for a month. This allows you to appeal to cat lovers and sponsors such as cat food companies.
Other aspects of planning include promoting the event, managing any risks involved, allocating resources, recruiting volunteers, appealing to sponsors, and deciding on a venue, food and entertainment.
What Is the Impact of Strategic Planning on Event Success?
Strategic planning and event success go hand in hand. Once a strategic plan is in place, organizations can plan events with goals in mind. Here are some statistics to consider:
- Around 71% of companies have strategic plans, business plans and similar planning tools in place.
- Businesses with written business plans grow 30% faster.
- Organizations with business plans are more likely to get funding than businesses that don’t have plans.
- According to a NonProfit PRO study, 86% of participants say strategic plans have a positive impact on generating revenue through events and other fundraising strategies. On average, 36% to 45% of a nonprofit's revenue is attributed to strategic planning.
Examples of How Strategic Planning Can Improve Fundraising Results
Strategic planning can improve fundraising results in several ways, including:
- Donor segmentation: Strategic planning allows you to segment donors and determine which groups you’re targeting to create a personalized approach.
- Resource allocation: Well-thought-out charity event coordination allows you to allocate staff and resources appropriately to ensure you are prepared for your event.
- Data-driven decision-making: Your event planning strategy should include gathering data to identify industry trends and donor behavior. You can use this data to develop effective fundraising strategies.
- Collaboration across departments: Nonprofit event management should involve collaboration between all departments to gain insight and present a targeted approach.
- Leveraging technology: Your planning efforts should help you identify the best technology to use for event registration, data collection, communication and engagement.
Planning Is Vital to Resource Allocation and Risk Management
Strategic planning is especially essential to resource allocation and risk management. Resource allocation involves:
- Gathering volunteers and human resources
- Ensuring you have the tools, equipment and supplies you need
- Budgeting for the overall event and each aspect of the event
- Determining how much time you must spend on each task
Address these issues in your planning to ensure success. Smart planning also ensures your event will be successful despite possible risks such as:
- Weather: Weather can cancel outdoor events and lead to low attendance. Plan events during good weather months if possible. Determine alternate venues for outdoor events.
- Security: Threats like theft, vandalism and violence can interfere with your fundraising event. Have a security team on hand to be prepared for these risks.
- Fire safety: Fire is a common event risk. Ensure your venue is equipped with fire extinguishers and emergency exits.
- Transportation: Issues with highways and public transportation can reduce attendance. Consider having shuttles available.
- Equipment and technology: Equipment malfunctions can impact your event. Test equipment and have backups on hand.
- Crowd management: Overcrowding can be an issue. Monitor your guest list carefully to prevent this risk.
- Food safety: Ensure food is safe for your guests. Use a reputable catering company that is aware of food issues.
- Medical emergencies: Be ready to call for medical assistance in emergencies. Have first aid kits on hand.
- Last-minute cancellations: If a performer, caterer or another provider cancels at the last minute, it can ruin the party. Choose reliable vendors. Consider possible backups in case cancellations occur.
What Are the Key Steps in Nonprofit Event Planning?
Philanthropic event planning must follow a well-thought-out process that includes a few key steps.
Starting the Event Planning Process
Outline the Initial Steps
The initial steps include:
- Define the goals of your charity. Consider how much money you want to raise and the specific cause.
- Create a nonprofit event budget. Determine how much you can spend on the event and break that down to allocate funding to various projects and tasks.
- Create a committee. Your committee should consist of board members, volunteers and employees.
- Choose a venue. Determine which venue you will use to host your event. The venue may impact other planning elements.
- Plan the agenda. Make an outline of your event agenda considering meals, entertainers and speakers.
- Plan your marketing campaign. Determine how you will market your event, identifying your channels and materials like event invitation emails.
- Consider sponsors, donors and vendors. Start thinking about the sponsors and donors you want to approach and the vendors you will hire.
- Set up registration. Once you announce your event, you may have donors willing to register before you know it. Ensure you are prepared for this process.
Align the Event with the Organization’s Mission
This may seem like a no-brainer, but ensuring the event is aligned with the organization’s mission is imperative to the planning process. It will help you identify the right donors. It will also help boost your brand awareness.
For example, if you are raising money to feed cats, make cats and cat food a central theme. Integrate your theme in your decorations, invitations and marketing items. Doing so will build excitement for your event and better establish your organization’s identity.
Provide a Timeline
Once you determine what you need to do, create a timeline. Determine which tasks to prioritize and which you can leave for a later date. Decide how much time you want to devote to each task.
When you have a timeline in front of you, you can determine who you want to assign to each task and how much each task will cost.
Creating a Nonprofit Event Checklist

You can use a nonprofit checklist to determine which tasks you’ve completed and which tasks you still have to complete. Here’s an outline of items your checklist should include:
Essential Items
Essential items include all the supplies, equipment and technology you need to make your event a success, such as:
- Dining essentials
- PA equipment for speakers and entertainment
- A projector to show stats and other visuals
- Décor
- Invitations
- Catering
- Entertainment
- Lighting
- Cameras
- First aid kits
- Technology like laptops and phone chargers
- Tools
- Supplies like pens, scissors and paper
Prioritize Your Items
Once you determine the items you need, prioritize them according to importance. For example, you want to get your caterer, entertainer and venue in place early on to ensure they are available.
You may have other items on hand or you may be able to round them up in a quick shopping trip. They shouldn’t be a priority.
Developing a Realistic Event Budget
Creating an event budget is tricky. Here are some things to consider to ensure you don’t spend more than you can afford.
Use Your Checklist
Your checklist will dictate your event budget. Consider your food and entertainment needs, technology, supplies and other extras so you can budget accordingly.
Tips for Accurate Cost Estimation
Research carefully to determine how much each item will cost, but you will get the most accurate estimates by talking to vendors and pricing items online. Once you have some reasonable numbers, compare them to what you can spend. If there are items that go above your budget, consider removing them from your checklist or look for ways to make them more affordable.
For example, you may consider hiring a solo musician or deejay instead of a live band to reduce expenses.
How to Balance Expenses with Potential Revenue
Your organization may have a budget set aside for fundraising. You may also consider devoting some of the money you raise to cover expenses.
The data you collect may give you an indication of how much you will raise through your event and other sources. You won’t want your expenses to interfere with potential revenue. Calculate your expenses and goals for an overall projection.
You may also consider fundraising to support your event. For example, you may start a campaign on a crowdfunding website to raise additional funds for your event. It may help promote the event as well.
How Can I Maximize Fundraising at My Nonprofit Event?
The overall aim of your fundraising strategy should be to raise the most funds possible. So how can you do that? Here are a few ideas.
Attract Donors to the Event
Various components of your event may attract donors. They may be enticed by food, entertainment or guest speakers. Others are dedicated to the cause. They want to know they are making a difference.
You can incorporate all these elements into your donor attraction strategies. Advertise the event as a fun time. Also, mention the goals you are hoping to attain and how they will help your cause.
Use descriptive language, images and videos to promote your cause and make your event more enticing.
Send Personalized Invitations
Inviting people via a mass-produced email isn’t going to cut it. A personalized invitation will make donors more likely to attend your event. Consider sending individual invitations by mail. It’s an added expense, but it will pay off by improving attendance.
You may also consider creating an event on Facebook and inviting your followers and friend groups. It’s a more personal approach than mass emails. It also gives you a chance to explain what your event is about.
As a bonus, you can use Facebook to share the event with relevant groups to promote it on a larger level.
You may also advertise your event through MeetUp.
Create Compelling Event Description Copy
Most online event sites provide a space for you to enter your event description. It gives you a chance to make your event shine. Your description should include:
- A section about your cause. Provide some background about your organization. Discuss the cause you are focusing on and why it’s important. Explain how past fundraisers have helped you reach your goals to incentivize donations.
- Emotional language. Doing so will make people care about your cause.
- Your goals. Explain how much money you want to raise and how it will be applied. Post links to your website including one for people who want to donate but can’t attend.
- Another section to outline your event. Mention the speakers who will speak, the entertainers who will entertain and the food that will be served. Use language that will make donors want to attend.
- The venue. Describe unique design elements of the location and its convenience. This strategy will help attract guests.
There’s a lot to talk about when describing your event but try to be as concise as possible. A lot of text will overwhelm users with short attention spans. If you feel a lot of text is necessary, break it into small sections to make it easy to scan quickly.
Incorporate Sponsorships and In-Kind Donations
Sponsorships can improve nonprofit event profitability. Sponsoring companies may help with advertising. Some may even offer “double the donation” matching efforts, a strategy that can lead to a 51-percent increase in gift size and a 71-percent increase in response rate.
Sponsors can help nonprofit events in several important ways:
- Financial: Sponsors can pay money to organizations that advertise their brands during the event.
- In-kind: Companies can provide free services or products in exchange for advertising.
- Media: Sponsors may help promote your event.
- Digital reach: Digital sponsors can provide event apps and virtual promotions.
- Credibility: The event, and your organization, can gain credibility with reputable sponsors on board.
Ways to Secure Event Sponsors
Organizations must devise strategies to attract sponsor companies. Here are the steps you can take:
- Identify possible sponsors: Sponsors that complement your industry are most likely to help. Find potential sponsors with aligned causes or local businesses that may be willing to donate items in return for promotion.
- Send a proposal: Create a sponsorship letter to explain your event and cause and how companies can benefit from sponsorship opportunities. You may also include an IRS-determined letter that automatically approves sponsoring companies for tax exemptions.
- Use a personal approach: Don’t simply send sponsorship letters. Contact companies by visiting their businesses or calling them on the phone. Establish a personal connection to encourage a positive response.
You can also attract sponsors by creating a sponsorship package. Packages often consist of tiers where the more money or items a business donates, the more perks it will receive.
Examples of perks include plaques and other types of recognition that can be displayed publicly in both organizations, VIP admission to the event and swag items.
What Fundraising Activities Work Best for Different Types of Events?
Here are some fundraising activities and the events they are best suited for:
- Feature speakers: Speakers are suited to most events. Few fundraising events will be successful without a speech from a board member or someone impacted by the cause. The main drawback of speeches is that they can be boring. Keep speeches brief to ensure guests remain engaged.
- Provide musical entertainment: Musical entertainment is ideal for an event that attracts young guests. For example, you may be able to get a popular band to put on a concert to promote your cause. Music can also serve as a backdrop for formal upscale events. Music will add excitement to your event, but it can also add to expenses. If you feel music is necessary but can’t afford it, consider hiring a solo musician or deejay.
- Offer other forms of entertainment: Similar to a musician, you may hire another type of entertainer such as a comedian, magician or dance troupe. They can be the main fundraising vehicle or they can make the event more exciting. Entertainment will add to costs, but it also promotes donor attendance.
- Make fundraising fun: You can make your fundraising more interesting and increase income by hosting raffles and offering upscale silent auction items. You can also do donation tracking during the event to add to the excitement of reaching your goal.
- Serve food: Food is a great way to attract donors. For upscale events, you can host a formal dinner with guest speakers. Casual fundraising events may include purchasing food from bake stands or vendors. You can provide the food directly to earn profits or have vendors pay you a fee in return for catering your event. You really can’t go wrong with food, except for the cleanup!
What Are the Essential Elements of Successful Nonprofit Event Management?
Successful nonprofit event management requires a strong event planning team, an effective timeline and smooth execution. Keep reading for tips that guide you in the right direction.
How Do I Build an Effective Event Planning Team?
Start by identifying key roles and responsibilities. For example, you may need:
- Vendor organizers
- A sponsor management team
- Guest list management
- Guest greeters for the day of the event
- A marketing team
…and the list goes on.
Determine how many people you need for each team. Then begin assembling them.
Hopefully, your staff can handle some responsibilities. You can also advertise for volunteers through social media and by emailing your existing donor list. Ask in person when possible to make people feel included and accountable.
As with sponsorships, offer incentives to volunteers such as VIP attendance at the event, swag and other opportunities.
Effective communication is key in volunteer management. Consider using a workplace management system like Slack or Asana to help keep your team on the same page.
What Timeline Should I Follow for Planning My Nonprofit Event?
There is no established timeline for event planning. Teams must focus on their priorities and work their way down from there. However, here are a few tips that will keep you on track:
- Develop a detailed timeline: Describe events in detail to ensure your team knows what to do and to avoid omitting details.
- Include key milestones and deadlines: Key milestones and deadlines ensure you complete major tasks on time.
- Adapt a timeline for different types of events: Once you create a timeline for one event, you can use it as a template for multiple events. However, you must adapt it considering what each event entails.
How Can I Ensure Smooth Execution on the Day of the Event?
Day-of-event planning ensures the event will run smoothly. Create a separate checklist for the day of the event so everything goes as planned. The checklist should include things like:
- When vendors will arrive
- When volunteers will arrive
- When guests will arrive
- When to perform setups such as decorations, PA and food setups
- The order of fundraising activities
Send your event day checklist to all involved parties.
Challenges may arise on the event day. For example, your vendors may cancel at the last minute. Your equipment may fail. Weather can also impact activities.
Plan to ensure you have backups in place. You will not find solutions for every issue but do your best to make things work. Maintain a sense of humor and make guests aware of unavoidable shortcomings. Offer a way to make it up to them if possible.
Here’s some expert advice that may make your event run smoother:
- Mindy Weiss advises planners to create “a statement piece or wow moment right at the entrance” to set the tone for the event.
- Lindsay Longacre of LVL Weddings says her team established the LVL Method, “a system to how we plan (events). We take our job seriously and want to ensure every client has the same quality customer service experience, so we decided to create the method that each of our planners follows.”
How Do I Choose the Right Type of Event for My Nonprofit Organization?
There are various event types to choose from. So how do you determine which is best for your nonprofit organization? Here are a few factors to consider:
Budget: Choose a fundraiser theme that fits your budget. For example, an organization with a low budget may host a community event like a sports outing, bake sale or car wash. Organizations with larger budgets may host music events or formal dinners.
- Audience: Your event should cater to your target audience. If your donors tend to be young, do something fun and trendy. Older donors may prefer an upscale, elegant event.
- Goals: Your goals should also set the tone for your event. If you aim to raise money for animals, consider incorporating animals in your event theme. If you are raising money for an environmental cause, consider using interactive elements to teach donors about environmental needs.
- Organizational capacity: Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Consider how many staff members you have and other resources to ensure your event is successful. Trying to perform beyond your means can result in a catastrophe.
Consider the Pros and Cons of Various Event Formulas
Various event formulas engage audiences and support fundraising efforts. If you tailor activities to your audience, you can’t go wrong. However, there are a few common downsides to consider:
- Overspending: Overspending is easier to do than you might think. You must consider all the expenses you may incur. For example, you may have enough money to hire a band, but you may not have enough to rent PA equipment (if necessary).
- Not engaging your target audience: Ensure your activities engage your target audience. If they don’t have fun, they may not want to attend the next event.
- Taking on more than you can handle: You may have an elaborate event planned in your mind, but ensure you have the resources to handle it. If not, your event may not be successful.
Event Preferences Among Donor Demographics
A Fundeasy article provides insight into event preferences among donor demographics. According to the report:
- Women prefer fancy tea parties and ladies’ nights out.
- All genders appreciate banquets, spaghetti dinners and walkathons.
- Gen-Zers prefer fun, budget-friendly experiences.
- Millennials like family-friendly events.
- Gen-Xers are versatile and enjoy family-friendly, upscale and immersive events.
- Baby boomers like unique, immersive experiences like concerts in the park. Avoid events that require a lot of physical activity.
How Do Different Events Align with Various Fundraising Goals?
Those who organize nonprofit events must determine which events align with their fundraising goals. In other words, which events will help you raise the money you need for your cause?
There is no guarantee when it comes to how much money you will raise, but a Funds2Orgs article reveals the most profitable fundraisers. They include:
- Bake sales: Bake sales are easy. Just set up a table with your baked goods and you’re good to go. You can host a bake sale in a community area to avoid rental fees. It’s likely someone in your organization can bake the goods, even if they are made from a package. With little overhead, you're bound to turn a profit.
- Art shows: Art shows tend to be profitable because many artists will donate their work for promotional purposes and the chance of a sale. You can agree to split profits or make money through admission. If you don’t need to rent a venue to show the artwork, you won’t have many additional expenses.
- 5K races: 5K fundraisers can be held in community spaces to reduce overhead costs. Charge a registration fee to make money. Don’t forget to award the winners with medals.
- Auctions: You may choose to host a silent auction at your event, but your auction can also be the main attraction. People enjoy the competitive format and know they are donating to a worthwhile cause. It shouldn’t be hard to gather donation items from your community considering it helps promote businesses and may provide tax deductions.
- Picnics or Barbecues: A picnic or barbecue is another relatively inexpensive endeavor. Sell food or charge admission to raise funds. You can also charge people to play games like bottle tosses, balloon pops and bingo.
Setting Realistic Fundraising Goals for Each Event Type
You can set realistic goals by looking at data from past events. Consider how many people tend to come to your events and how much they donate. Break down these statistics based on your event type.
For example, if you held a car wash that made $5,000 last year, expect similar numbers this year. An elegant dinner may bring in higher donations, closer to $50,000 or more.
Encourage your donors to outdo themselves. For example, when promoting a car wash, you can include language like, “Last year we made $5,000. This year let’s make it $6,000!
You must also compare your expenses to likely profitability. For example, budget-friendly fundraisers like bake sales and picnics don’t require a huge investment so they are less risky. A concert or elegant dinner requires a bigger investment, but there’s more money-raising potential.
Maximizing Revenue for Your Event
There are several ways to maximize revenue for your event. Here are some suggestions:
- Host raffles and auctions: Raffles and auctions can be added to almost any fundraising event to increase revenue. “Keep the pot” raffles are especially effective. The idea is for everyone to place a cash donation in a jar. The raffle winner keeps half the cash. Typically, the winner ends up donating their winnings to the organization. It’s profitable and requires almost no effort or investment.
- Advertise effectively: Start advertising early. Create various promotional items (fliers, invitations, online events) to get people excited.
- Include online links: Include online links in your promotional materials to encourage donations from people who can’t attend.
- Reduce expenses: The less money you spend, the more you will make. Consider ways to save money, for example, you may choose a deejay instead of a live band as your musical entertainment.
- Take advantage of sponsorships: Sponsorships may reduce your funding and help with promotions to make your event more successful.
What Are the Best Ways to Promote My Nonprofit Event?
Promotion is key to event success. So how should you promote your event? Social media promotion is one of your most powerful nonprofit event tools.
According to Skift Meetings, 58% of event planners use social media before, during and after events, and 40% of planners say it’s a key metric of event success.
The first step involves creating graphics, such as fliers, that you can share on social media. Your fliers should be eye-catching and easy to read. They should clearly state the location, time and date of the event as well as a few key elements.
If you feel your flier needs more information, but want to avoid overcrowding it, include a link or QR code where donors can go to learn more.
Once you have a flier, you can use it to:
- Make a social media event: Facebook is an ideal platform for creating social media events. Use your flier as a main image. Explain what people can expect when attending using descriptive language. Invite your friends and followers.
- Create free posts: Social media is an ideal marketing channel because posting doesn’t cost a thing. Post your flier on various channels such as Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook and other platforms. Use hashtags to ensure your posts reach interested groups. You can also seek out groups that share your interests and post your flier publicly.
- Use paid social media advertising: Paid social media advertising allows you to choose who will see your post based on various demographics to ensure it reaches your target audience. It provides an analysis of who reacted to your post so you can determine if your strategy is effective. You can set your budget to ensure you don’t overspend.
- Press Releases: A well-written and well-placed press release can make a huge difference. If you're looking to write one quickly, we built a free tool that generates professional press releases fast.
You can also use social media to share blog posts and videos that promote your event to ensure people don’t get burned out by seeing the same flier repeatedly.
What Traditional Marketing Methods Are Still Effective for Nonprofit Events?
Social media is an effective method for promoting nonprofit events digitally, but you should do more than promote online. A personal touch offers a refreshing angle and forges a deeper connection.
Here are some traditional approaches you can use to enhance digital marketing efforts and attract donors to your event:
- Hang fliers: Go into community centers and local businesses that have boards where you can hang fliers or place smaller fliers on a windowsill or shelf. Ask permission first to maintain good relations and ensure your fliers aren’t discarded. Printed fliers are a great way to promote your event to the public.
- Send personal invitations: Mail invitations to prior donors and other people who are likely to attend. Include their names on the envelopes and the invitations. The personal approach will encourage them to show up.
- Network: Are there any conferences relevant to your industry that you can attend or speak at? Talk to other attendees about your event, hand out fliers and mention the event in your speech.
How Can I Measure the Success of My Nonprofit Event?
The simplest way to measure the success of your nonprofit event is to determine how much you spent vs. how much you raised. Your net profit will indicate whether your efforts paid off.
However, you should also look at various key performance indicators (KPIs) as part of your event evaluation process to determine how you can make events more successful moving forward. These KPIs include:
- Donor growth rate: How many more donors attended this year’s events compared to last year’s event? Also consider how many donors you gained through online activity since you began promoting.
- Cost per acquisition: How much did it cost you to acquire each donor and attendee? Digital tools typically provide analysis indicating your expenses and performance rates.
- Average gift donation: On average, how much did each donor contribute and did you send a donation receipt to each one?
- Retention rate: How many donors who attended last year’s event showed up this year?
Set benchmarks and goals for each KPI to determine if you met your objectives.
Tools for Tracking and Analyzing Event Metrics
Several tools can analyze and track your event metrics. Here are some to consider using in your campaign:
- Email metrics: Email programs target metrics like unsubscribe rates, bounce rates, open rates, click-through rates and conversion rates to determine how many people interacted with your email and bought tickets to your event after an email communication.
- Paid social media: A paid social media campaign will show your click-through rate, conversion rate, cost per click, impression reach and audience and follower growth.
- Ticket-selling sites: You can see how many tickets you sell through various ticket-selling sites to determine which is most effective.
- PPC: Pay-per-click advertising means you only pay when people click your ad. It provides metrics like click-through rate, cost per click, conversion rates, return on investment (ROI) and impressions. It also provides a quality score that offers insight into your ad’s relevance, quality and SEO value.
Effective Post-Event Evaluation
You should also conduct a post-event evaluation to measure your event’s success. In addition to analyzing digital data, you should send surveys to gather feedback from guests. Find out whether they enjoyed the event and identify pain points to make relevant improvements.
Once you have the data in front of you, fit it into a framework to measure your success. For example, you can create a spreadsheet with categories like ROI, customer satisfaction and donation amounts. Use ratings and make notes on what worked and what didn’t.
Use your analysis to improve future events. Here are some ideas:
- Reduce expenses by using different vendors, reducing supply costs, etc.
- Narrow promotion to channels that produce the best ROI and engagement.
- Consider donor input to eliminate pain points and make your events more enjoyable.
- Determine other technologies like event registration software, which could make future events run smoother.
