Dynamic event branding makes for successful fundraising

We are pleased be able to finally unveil the event branding for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Seattle Guild’s 21st Annual Dream Gala. This year’s gala theme was Denim, Diamonds and Dreams and the event was held March 6th at the Seattle Sheraton.

The event is the largest of several events held annually by the Guild to raise funds in support of it’s mission: to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research. The evening started with silent and wine auctions followed by dinner and live auction and culminating with an impressive entertainment guest—Lyle Lovett (we love Lyle!).

The Causality team developed the event branding and provided design execution of all of the event collateral including the save the date mailer, the invitation, the event catalog, notepads, name tags, signage, onscreen graphics, bags and even a custom wine bottle design. This event draws a large audience and raises an impressive amount of money—even Terri got into the action and walked away from the event with two nice pieces of jewelry from Seattle area artisans.

Most important is the success and impact of the event. The JDRF Seattle Guild announced that the 21st Annual Dream Gala Denim, Diamond and Dreams raised $3,008,000 for vital diabetes research!

Do good, help others, go home happy!
