Planning a fundraiser? Let's start printing!

Organizing a fundraiser event involves careful planning and attention to detail to ensure its success. One crucial aspect of event planning is printing the necessary materials to create a cohesive and impactful experience for attendees. From promotional materials to on-site signage, the right print essentials can make a significant difference in fundraising efforts.


Fundraiser Materials



Flyers

Start building anticipation for your fundraiser event by posting eye-catching flyers. High-quality prints with engaging designs will not only inform potential attendees but also create a positive first impression, encouraging them to mark the date on their calendars.

Recommended paper stocks: Light Card Stock - Gloss or Light Card Stock - Satin




Event Programs

A well-designed event program is essential for informing attendees about the schedule and activities. Include a detailed agenda, performers, and any other relevant information. A professionally printed program enhances the overall experience and serves as a keepsake for attendees.
