Event Budget Creation

Project details

What we need
  • A detailed event budget that breaks down the total available funds into itemized cost categories
  • A flexible event budget template that can be reused for future event planning
  • Tips on how to stick to the budget and manage unexpected costs
What we have in place
  • We currently have an event template from previous years, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have dedicated development staff to assist, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,212 , allowing us to invest in more direct mail fundraising campaigns.

It has been challenging to transition to virtual events

Project plan

P
Prep: Share & Review Event Information
  • Volunteer Manager provides Professional with the event plan or concept brief, which should include the total available budget, the purpose and goals of the event, and any known logistical aspects such as the expected number of guests, timing, location, etc.
  • Volunteer Manager provides Professional with any prior event budgets, including any known costs or vendors (such as the preferred venue, or a caterer that the Organization has worked with before)
  • Volunteer Manager indicates which aspects of the event are a ‘must have’ and which are a ‘nice to have’
1
Milestone 1: Draft Budget Review
  • Professional creates a draft of the budget with itemized cost areas, including recommended allocations and any known or fixed costs, and shares it with the Volunteer Manager
  • Volunteer Manager reviews the budget and provides up to two rounds of feedback
2
Milestone 2: Final Budget
  • Professional delivers the final event budget to the Volunteer Manager
3
Milestone 3: Recommendations
  • Professional provides Volunteer Manager with advice about how to manage the budget and any unexpected costs
  • Professional teaches Volunteer Manager how to adjust the budget spreadsheet to see how removing, modifying, or adding cost items affects the overall budget
