Third party events

A third party event occurs when an external group plans and organizes their own event in the community, with proceeds directed to the Alzheimer Society Niagara Foundation. We have been very fortunate to receive tremendous support from the community over the years.

Before you start, read through our guidelines.

Get creative!  In the past groups have organized many different events, such as:

• BBQ

Special occasions

Special occasions offer an opportunity to support the Alzheimer Society in a meaningful way. 

Weddings

Weddings in particular offer a number of ways to give back:

• Donations in lieu of bombonieres or favours
• Requests for donations instead of gifts for the couple
• Donations in lieu of shower or other gifts
• Thank you gifts for members of your wedding party

Milestone occasions

Celebrate milestone occasions with a personal donation, or ask for donations in your name in lieu of gifts.  

• Birthdays
• Anniversaries
• Retirement
• Graduation

Our in-house graphic designer will personally work with you to develop a customized place card, table sign or donation card that is suitable for your event.
