Maximize your impact by bringing your friends, family, neighborhood, or coworkers together to eat, drink, and donate.  \nPlease take a moment to read through the packet and plan out the steps involved in holding a great party. A member of our PERIOD Team will be in touch over the next few weeks to answer any questions and ensure you have the support you need.  \nWhat is a house party? House parties are a quick and easy way to raise awareness and/or money for PERIOD. It doesn’t even have to be in your house to be a house party. Have brunch at your favorite restaurant, a picnic ata park, or coffee at your neighborhood café . Invite folks to attend and bring a box of tampons or pads to donate, tell them about why you care about the work PERIOD is doing in the community and why eradicating period poverty is important. PERIOD can put you in touch with a local chapter to come and speak with your guests and answer any questions, and leave them with an easy way to donate or get involved.  \nWhatever type of gathering you choose to host, make it unique to you and your guests. You know them better than anyone else, so shape your party to what will best resonate with them.  \nThese house parties can raise $300-$10, 000 for PERIOD and are critical to the future of our programs. Thank you In advance!  \nWhere do I start?  \nFirst thing you should do once you’ve decided to host a fundraiser is email [dara@period.org](dara@period.org) and give us a heads up. It helps to know a little about your event, the date, the location. We can help you brainstorm the rest!  \nYour Toolkit Includes:  \n FAQ to guide you in your party planning  \n Party Checklist that covers everything you’ll need to host a great event  \n Sample party agenda, though this is completely customizable to your event  \n Sign-in sheets so we can reach out to guests who want to know more  \n Sample email invite for you to personalize  \n Sample thank you email with handy links for your guests to stay involved  \nFAQ   \nFrequently Asked Questions that may come up as you plan  \nyour house party!  \nQ: What kind of party should I host?  \nA: That’s totally up to you! You know what would be the most fun for your friends. Are they more sit-down dinner folks or more for a backyard barbeque? Tea party, park playdate, or even a game night. Some people like to host house parties as part of another celebration such as a birthday or anniversary. It doesn’t have to be fancy – light refreshments are great, the less work you take on as a party planner, the more you can focus on the mission of your event.  \nQ: I don’t know PERIOD’s work inside and out. Should I still host?  \nA: Absolutely! Use the resources in this toolkit to get familiar, or simply share them directly with your friends and family. Remember: the best way to be an ambassador is to share how your own experiences connect to PERIOD’s mission and what inspired you to take action. PERIOD will send a PowerPoint with images, videos, and a presentation ahead of time.  \nQ: What’sthe best way to promote my event?  \nA: If you choose to send your invite through an online platform there will likely be some built-in features that make it easy to remind and communicate with your guests. Doing a Paperless Post, or Eventbrite, or Facebook event are great ways. Take advantage of social media to spread the word, and ask each guest to bring a friend or two along. Expand your list even further by co-hosting with a friend or colleague – bonus points if you don’t have overlapping social circles.  \nQ: How should my guests and I make our donations?  \nA: Great question. We’ve made it simple for you to collect donations from your guests using one (or more) of these options:  \n1. Ask your guests to donate online at [period.org/donate.
