Thank you for your interest in hosting an event benefiting the women served by EGH!
Below are just some ideas for ways that you can “gather for good”.
Event Fundraising
Almost any party or occasion can be transformed into an opportunity to help others and fundraise for EGH!
Event Ideas:
- Bring items from EGH’s wishlist as “admission” to a social gathering
- Birthday parties – check out this “kid-friendly” organization description!
- Office holiday parties
- Book club
- Community group
- Graduation
- Retirement
- Fourth of July
- Wedding and Anniversary events where there is a “no gifts” theme
Host a Donation Drive
A high-impact way to help EGH is holding a donation drive to collect much-needed items for women in our community who are experiencing homelessness, trauma, or economic insecurity.
Here are some ideas for donation drive themes. You can choose a theme based on your business or occasion, or plan around the items that EGH needs the most.
- Book Drive
- Spring Cleanouts
- College Move Out Season
- Fraternity/Sorority Charitable Drives
- Pantry staples and shelf-stable snacks (nonperishable foods)
- Socks and underwear (new only)
- Craft and art supplies
- Gift cards (Target, Amazon, Costco, grocery)
- Hygiene items
- Women’s clothing (new and gently used)
Collect items that EGH needs the most.
Visit our Wishlist page for a complete list.
