## Resource

How does a nonprofit create multiple signature fundraising events that are each unique, impactful, and fun? Today, I talk with Divya Brown and Janae Tsai, co-chairs of Runway to Asia benefiting Asia Society Texas Center. Last year, Asia Society Texas Center launched Runway to Asia to serve as a complement to its highly impactful annual special event repertoire. The event immediately made a fundraising and cultural impact on the Houston community, highlighting Asian designers who have made an impact in Houston and around the world. Divya and Janae provide valuable insights on a range of topics, including how serving on various nonprofit committees prepares you to successfully chair an event, effectively utilizing a second fundraising event to recruit new donors/supporters, tips on deciding whether a fashion show is the right fundraising vehicle for your nonprofit, maintaining the momentum of a successful first-year signature fundraising event, and so much more. This is one episode you will definitely not want to miss.
