Hello Fellow Kiwanis CNH Foundation Board Members,
As you are aware, the Foundation is hosting a "Shoot For The Moon" Gala & Auction in conjunction with the Mid-Year Conferences, February 8th, 2020 in San Gabriel and February 22nd, 2020 in Modesto. Only 13 weeks until our first Gala!!
In order to host successful events, we need your support and participation!! Let's
Shoot For The Moon
together and double what we raised last year!! Below are the areas we could really use your help!
Secure donations for each event
We are seeking items for both our silent and live auctions! Please start asking your local retailers and restaurants for donations of gift cards or items for our silent auction. High-value items will be for our live auction, such as an
overnight stay in a hotel, a weekend get-away, airline tickets, behind the scenes tour, etc. Do you have airline miles you'd be willing to donate? How about a time-share? Think outside of the box. After you've secured an auction donation, please click
here
to complete a donation form.
Directors are also asked to donate one or two bottles of wine for each Gala with a minimum retail value of $25 each (no hard alcohol or beer, please. Only wine can be accepted). If you prefer to simply send a check to the Foundation to
avoid the hassle of transporting wine during your travel to Mid-Year, Pete Horton has volunteered to purchase wine on your behalf.
Secure sponsorships for each event
Attached is a sponsorship donation packet and below is text you can copy and paste into an email when contacting potential sponsors. Please help us get sponsors! A lot of businesses would love the opportunity to be featured in our gala,
they just need us to ask them. If you have a company or lead that you think would be willing but don't want to do the ask, please forward their contact information to me at
xxxxxx@gmail.com and I'll be happy to reach out to them. After you've secured a sponsor, please click
here
to complete a donation form. All sponsorships/ads and payment must be received in the Foundation office by January 17th to ensure proper recognition at the event.
Spread the word about the Galas
Please start announcing the Gala at all your club meetings and DCM. I attached artwork to this email please share on your Facebook page. As soon as tickets are ready we are going to be inviting people to purchase tickets to this awesome
event, but right now we just want to spread the word as much as possible.
Here is the link to the Gala page. Please share with Kiwanians, potential sponsors, donors, and friends. Non-Kiwanians may attend the Gala so invite your friends as well.

Hi XXX,
The Kiwanis Cal-Nev-Ha Foundation is hosting the 2020 Shoot for the Moon Gala and
Auction on February 8, 2020, at the Sheraton Los Angeles San Gabriel and on February 22nd, 2020 in Modesto. The proceeds raised at both events will help to build
a better future for our children by providing leadership training, scholarships, grants, and through our innovative Pediatric Trauma Program, which helps save millions of babies from preventable injuries.
Our goal is to raise funds to support these endeavors and we are asking for your support by being a sponsor (Sponsorship package attached) or providing a live or silent auction item. Our members are successful business
owners, community leaders, corporate executives and retired professionals who have tremendous purchasing power and influences. Our audience encompasses leaders from our three-state district of California, Nevada, and Hawaii. We expect anywhere from 150 to
300 attendees.
Sponsors will be listed in our event program and on-screen at the event to assist in promoting your business. All donations are tax-deductible, as we are a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization, and we will be happy to provide a tax
receipt.
To make it into our event program we need to hear by Friday, January 17th, 2020.
Please take a look at the Sponsorship packet attached. Thank you in advance for your support of this important event. Working together, we can help provide better opportunities for students and our community. If you are able to help,
please contact me at 626-348-9705; xxxxxx@gmail.com
