YOU CAN BE A SPONSOR!
SPONSOR OR DECORATE A TREE
Our Tree Auction is the main event at Festival of Trees! Each year, a talented group of decorators donate their time to decorate a new artificial or live tree with the theme of their choice. The tree is provided by Dakota Hope, if needed. Each decorator has a sponsor that commits to pay for the decorations. An individual or organization can apply to sponsor (pay for decorations) and/or decorate a tree.
Over the years we have learned the more sparkle a tree has, people are drawn to bidding on it. Due to this, we work with our sponsors and decorators on making a commitment to decorate the tree with lights, garland, and a theme.
DONATE AUCTION ITEMS
In addition to trees, we are seeking other items such as gift baskets or other items for the live and silent auctions. A wish-list of items can be found at the bottom of the sign-up page, or at the link below.
UNDERWRITE DAKOTA HOPE EVENTS
Underwriters cover the expenses involved in putting on Dakota Hope major events, the Fundraising Banquet and the Festival of Trees. These expenses include food, venue, speaker fees, marketing, printing, etc. Because of the generosity of underwriters, all proceeds raised during the event can go directly to help Dakota Hope accomplish its mission of saving and changing lives.
There are different levels of underwriting that come with various levels of recognition. If you are interested in being an underwriter for Dakota Hope Clinic, please contact Tim Knutson, Director of Development at tknutson@dakotahope.org or 701-833-8951.
