Host an Event

Choose Sombrilla as your charity of choice for your event!

Third party fundraisers and initiatives are a great way to give back to your community and support a charity like Sombrilla.

What is a third party fundraising event/initiative?

An event or initiative organized by an individual, community group or company that is not an official Sombrilla event.  Acting independently and with Sombrilla’s approval, third party events are an important resource for raising funds to help us carry out our work of fostering partnerships for social justice.

When you organize a third party event or initiative, you are not only raising money to support Sombrilla, you are also raising awareness about Sombrilla and the important work we do. This increase in awareness is an invaluable component to third party fundraising events.

We ask that all events being held to support Sombrilla be compatible with our mission and vaules.

To start, please review the Sombrilla Third Party Fundraising Kit. This will help you understand who we are, what support we can provide to you and what we require from you at your event. It reviews the approval process, logo usage, promotions, insurance and liability, sponsorship, volunteers, Sombrilla representative request and tax receipt processes. It will also review what support we give to you, the host of the third-party fundraising initiative or event. Supports like providing logos, messaging, speaking notes, online fundraising platforms, social media and website promotion etc.

Let’s get started, download the Third Party Fundraising Kit.

Once you have reviewed the information kit and our policies, the next step is to tell us about your idea!
