Major impact begins in a room full of people who care. 
I’m bringing people together for an upcoming book signing and community engagement event designed to connect, uplift and create real impact for those suffering through Dementia and Alzheimers. That means I’ve been connecting with sponsors and speakers who want to be apart of something meaningful. Support helps turn a vision into real, lasting impact.
I’m most excited to host a safe space where lives have an opportunity to be transformed. If someone learns a new technique, shows up more gentler with their person or adds a new soul to their village to walk along beside them…WHEW. BIG SUCCESS. BIG. I don't have direct experiences but I know what they’re going through it tough through my indirect ones via family and friends…it's unimaginable. So having anyone in the room make a solid connection would not only make me cry but would be considered a successful event to me. If you or your company are interested in sponsorships with this cause or any of the nonprofits I serve, contact me.
3 things most people don’t know about event sponsorship:
In-kind vs. monetary sponsorship: Monetary sponsors provide direct funding, while in-kind sponsors contribute goods or services (like catering, venues or media support). Both reduce costs—just in different ways—and many events rely heavily on in-kind to stay financially viable.
Most nonprofit events don’t actually make profit from ticket sales. In fact, tickets often just cover baseline costs (venue, permits, insurance). The real impact and revenue comes from sponsors, donors and long-term partnerships built around the event.
Post-event data is a huge driver of future funding. Organizers track metrics like attendance, engagement, demographics, and community impact reports—then use that data to secure bigger sponsors, grants, and partnerships for future events. A well-documented event can unlock opportunities long after it ends.
