Objective<\/strong>: The \u2018Raise Our Wings Gala\u2019 is the organization’s largest fundraiser of the year. The objective was to raise as much money as possible and have donors sponsor each of the 9 puppies who would be going into training. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was also important to showcase all the sponsors of the event and ensure that the silent auction was successful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outcome<\/strong>: A total of 255 guests attended the fundraising event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guests were greeted by puppies, a champagne reception and a balloon arch leading them into the main ballrooms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once inside, guests were able to partake in many activities, while they were treated to upbeat music provided by a local DJ. The activities included a photo booth, dog demonstrations provided by the fully trained dogs in service, the silent auction, a wine and spirits wall, a 50\/50 raffle, a Westjet trip raffle and a live painter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guest tables were decorated with themed florals and a program of the evening. Once it was time to sit down to dinner, a small program commenced, that included speeches from the main sponsor, Stahl Peterbilt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At dinner, guests were able to mingle and network while they listened to the music stylings of Matt Day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After dinner, the main program began, which factored in a live auction, and the winners of the raffles! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, the Dogs with Wings organization raised over $200,000 at their live auction alone and saw much more come in with their other fundraising efforts at the event. Guests, clients and donors alike had a great time partaking in all the activities and contributing to the fundraiser! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
