Host a Dine and Donate Dinner

Great Food and Good Friends. What’s better than that? Help our local homeless families and children by hosting a Dine and Donate Dinner. How does it work? It’s easy. Host a dinner party or event at your home or other location such as a restaurant or club. Instead of the usual host gift of wine or flowers, ask guests to make a donation to MASH. You could also make it part of an event you already had in mind such as a birthday or anniversary party. Simply ask guests to make a donation rather than bringing presents. How do you get started? It’s as easy as 1,2,3

Step 1
Decide when and where you intend to hold your fundraising dinner, how many people you plan to invite, and what form your event is going to take. It could be anything from a wine tasting evening to pizzas and a movie. If you are unsure what to do please take a look at our Ideas.
 
Step 2
Pick a date and make up your guest list. Contact MASH and let us know when and where your dinner will be held. MASH can supply brochures and other helpful materials to assist you in the planning.

Step 3
Fundraise. Set a fundraising goal. Decide if you want to suggest a donation amount on the invitation or just put a basket at your door. The MASH address can be put on the invitation should individuals want to donate if they are unable to attend.

Remember: Have fun with it! Your enthusiasm and support will be contagious. It’s not just about fundraising. Its about helping to spread this word about MASH as a worthy cause you support. Please send pictures of your event to post on our web site and share your ideas with others.
